{"product_id":"worstward-ho-9780394532301","title":"Worstward ho","description":"\u003cp\u003eBecketts second last prose text  Worstward Ho  is a novella written in 1983  shortly after the largely autobiographical Company and an ironic theological speculation  both previously published as the first two parts of a late trilogy of short novels. The concentration of language and precision of description in the current work is revolutionary  even for Beckett  the great reshaper of literary expression  and its theme is the creation of life  as if by a malignant God or Demiurge. Life  against all possibility  finally exists  and man becomes a painful presence. It is one of the supreme poetic texts of the 20th century.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45652697579573,"sku":"ByrdShop_0394532309","price":218.05,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780394532301.jpg?v=1781852457","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/worstward-ho-9780394532301","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
