{"product_id":"lucie","title":"Lucie","description":"This novel tells the story of the misalliance between Luice, a vivacious and beautiful dancing girl from Tivoli, and Theodor Gerner, a respectable lawyer from the straight-laced middle-class society of nineteenth-century Norway. Having first kept her as a mistress, Gerner is so captivated by Lucie's charms that he marries her, only to discover that his project to turn her into a proper and demure housewife is continually frustrated by her irrepressible sensuality and lack of fine breeding. What had made her alluring as a mistress makes her unacceptable as a wife. His attempts to govern her behaviour develop gradually into a harsh tyranny against which she rebels in a manner which brings misery and despair to both.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1870041488\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.1870041488.A\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Acceptable\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Amalie Skram|Judith Messick|Katherine Hanson\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: The item is very worn but is perfectly usable.
