{"product_id":"madensky-square","title":"Madensky Square","description":"A whip-smart observation of the passions and tragedies behind daily life, Eva Ibbotson's Madensky Square is a classic snapshot of Viennese life before WWI, with a new introduction from Laura Wood.\nSusanna Weber's dress shop stands in the picturesque Madensky Square, a quiet little world of its own, nestled in the heart of glittering pre-war Vienna.\nAs the winter of 1910 unfurls into spring, Susanna starts a journal about life in the Square, about the buildings and their colorful inhabitants. There's Frau Schumacher, with six daughters and a baby on the way, Professor Starsky and his menagerie of sickly reptiles, an aging bookseller, a teenaged Anarchist, and little Sig –an orphaned child prodigy forced to play the piano all day, every day.\nAnd then there's her dear friend Alice, the only person who has noticed the heartbreak that hides beneath Susanna's brisk kindness and brilliant talent . . .\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1529023041\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.1529023041.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Ibbotson, Eva|Wood, Laura\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 shows wear from consistent use, but it remains in good condition and works perfectly.
