{"product_id":"travesties-2","title":"Travesties","description":"Set against the backdrop of Zurich during World War I, this play intertwines the lives of historical figures such as James Joyce, Tristan Tzara, and Lenin, all seen through the eyes of Henry Carr, a minor British consular official. The narrative explores themes of art, politics, and memory, using a mix of farce and intellectual discourse. Stoppard's work is a witty and complex examination of the intersections between personal and historical events, filled with clever wordplay and theatrical innovation.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePublished 1975\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBinding of book is slightly loose.
