{"product_id":"9780798185813","title":"The Wildest Beauty","description":"\u003cp\u003eDanny Marais is the twin brother of the beautiful, talented Charlie. The Wildest Beauty is a remarkable novel, Danny's account of their childhood . . . up to their eventual enlistment in the First World War. \u003cbr\u003eFrom their placidly peaceful Stellenbosch schooldays to, ultimately, the Battle of Delville Wood, Danny keeps a loving but halfresentful eye on his brother. The novel is also an intimate account of a small group of friends and family, inter alia the loving parents left behind in Stellenbosch during wartime. \u003cbr\u003eAnd then there is Danny's life-changing encounter, in the darkened streets of wartime London, with a wryly cynical, battlescarred officer. In the midst of the greatest conflict in history, facing the wild beauty of 'the abyss of unmeaning', Danny discovers the power of love, between friends, family - and even foes. \u003cbr\u003e'An extraordinary work of fiction both in the depth of its creativity and its imaginative scope … and the writing, well, the writing is superb.' - Mike Nicol\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"book-contributors\"\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"contributor-item\"\u003e\n    \u003cspan class=\"contributor-role\"\u003eAuthor\u003c\/span\u003e\n    \u003ca href=\"\/search?q=Author+Michiel+Heyns\" class=\"contributor-link\"\u003eMichiel Heyns\u003c\/a\u003e\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Michiel Heyns","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47381059371171,"sku":"9780798185813","price":380.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0741\/7836\/3555\/files\/img_9780798185813_0036bcfe-11c9-4fa9-a2be-437e7b3e0ea0.jpg?v=1776803552","url":"https:\/\/graffitibooks.co.za\/products\/9780798185813","provider":"Graffiti Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
