{"product_id":"red-dog","title":"Red Dog","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe enchanting story of a very remarkable dog from the author of the bestselling Captain Corelli's Mandolin.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e‘In early 1998 I went to Perth in Western Australia in order to attend the literature festival, and part of the arrangement was that I should go to Karratha to do their first ever literary dinner. Karratha is a mining town a long way further north. The landscape is extraordinary, being composed of vast heaps of dark red earth and rock poking out of the never-ending bush. I imagine that Mars must have a similar feel to it. I went exploring and discovered the bronze statue to Red Dog outside the town of Dampier. I felt straight away that I had to find out more about this splendid dog. A few months later I returned to Western Australia and spent two glorious weeks driving around collecting Red Dog stories and visiting the places that he knew, writing up the text as I went along. I hope my cat never finds out that I have written a story to celebrate the life of a dog.’ Louis de Bernières.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Goldsboro Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47869056975142,"sku":"louisdebernieres3","price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0733\/4900\/5606\/files\/a8c757dc-7847-4fac-8959-cf802da3a91b.jpg?v=1710587833","url":"https:\/\/goldsborobooks.pro\/products\/red-dog","provider":"Goldsboro Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
