{"product_id":"homework-a-memoir-1","title":"Homework: A Memoir","description":"\u003cp\u003eBorn in 1958, the only child of a dinner lady and a sheet-metal worker, Geoff Dyer grew up in a world shaped by memories of shortages and the Second World War. It was a time of Airfix models, wargames, conkers and frugality: Geoff's father splurges on a mono record player - before imposing a blockade on buying records.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBut far from being a story of hardship overcome, Homework is a celebration of opportunities afforded to Dyer's generation. A grammar-school education leads to books, prog rock (on a new stereo), girls, beer and, eventually, a place at Oxford. He would go on to embrace a life his parents could barely recognise. In Homework, Dyer returns to the source and asks what it means to live through an era of complex social transformation.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"PRHD Penguin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50504137081055,"sku":"9781837262014","price":28.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0685\/2185\/3151\/files\/9781837262014.jpg?v=1782769160","url":"https:\/\/blackbirdfloral.info\/products\/homework-a-memoir-1","provider":"Lamplight Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
