{"product_id":"adventures-in-the-skin-trade-1","title":"Adventures in the Skin Trade","description":"As a rule, a good novel does not always make a good play--especially a novel as unconventional as this one by Dylan Thomas. But Andrew Sinclair's brilliant adaptation of \u003cem\u003eAdventures in the Skin Trade\u003c\/em\u003e is the exception. This is the story of young Samuel Bennet--a not entirely innocent provincial--who leaves his Welsh home to let adventure find him in London. Sam is soon deeply involved--all the while with his finger stuck fast in an ale bottle--with a fantastic assortment of odd characters whom only Dylan Thomas could have conceived. What \u003cem\u003eThe Times Literary Supplement\u003c\/em\u003e said about \u003cem\u003eAdventures in the Skin Trade\u003c\/em\u003e as a novel still applies to the play: \"There is no doubt of Thomas's genius as a comic writer ... there are memorable images and phrases on every page.\" One reason is Andrew Sinclair's exceptionally skillful adaptation.","brand":"New Directions Publishing Corporation","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48833663205581,"sku":"9780811217859","price":14.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0557\/1529\/9533\/files\/imageloader_bef36b21-0e75-42e6-9645-ce5883410c35.jpg?v=1790892746","url":"https:\/\/booksatmidnight.com\/products\/adventures-in-the-skin-trade-1","provider":"Books At Midnight","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
