{"product_id":"brighton-rock","title":"Graham Greene: Brighton Rock [2013] hardback","description":"\u003cp\u003e'He was ready for more deaths.' Pinkie Brown, a young gangster wielding a razor blade and a bottle of vitriol, will kill anyone to stay alive and free. In the first of his major novels, Graham Greene looks into this brutal mind and finds there a yearning for repentance. \u003ci\u003eBrighton Rock\u003c\/i\u003e (1938) is both a thriller and the study of soul in torment.  Pinkie is hunted down both by Ida, a woman bursting with easy certainties about what is right and wrong, and by a mysterious power of pity and mercy. Set against seaside amusements and race-track protection rackets, this story, twice filmed, has become one of the classics of modern literature, mapping out the strange border between holiness and savagery. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith an Introduction by Professor Richard Greene.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Greene, Graham \u0026 Greene, Professor Richard","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":46544559407443,"sku":"9781909621046","price":6.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0616\/4001\/6057\/files\/greene-graham-greene-professor-richard-graham-greene-brighton-rock-2013-hardback-9781909621046-57291472077139.jpg?v=1727315962","url":"https:\/\/theirishbookshop.live\/products\/brighton-rock","provider":"Chapters Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
