{"product_id":"9781803094168","title":"A History of Light","description":"\u003cp\u003eHave you ever wondered what a story written by a beam of light would be like? The story would be ordinary, but the course of events extraordinary. Its hero would be a photographer, a guardian of light. And, naturally, the tale would be full of shadow. 'A History of Light' delves into the fascinating life of Frantisek Drtikol (1883-1961), an important figure in early-twentieth-century photography who is all but forgotten in contemporary times. A dandy from a small mining town, a world-famous photographer whose business went bankrupt, a master of the nude who never had much luck with women, a mystic and a Buddhist who believed in communism - a man whose numerous contradictions were evident externally and synthesized internally. A unique blend of fiction and biography, this novel vividly portrays Drtikol's life, tracing the diverse stages of his career.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Seagull Books","offers":[{"title":"Jan \/ Nemec","offer_id":55767736516981,"sku":"9781803094168","price":20.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0289\/5334\/6096\/files\/9781803094168.jpg?v=1754993440","url":"https:\/\/goldenharebooks.pro\/products\/9781803094168","provider":"Golden Hare Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
