Together the pieces are an extraordinary addition to Fo's body of work.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Dario Fo\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Grove Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/13\/2005\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 194\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.49lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.28h x 5.56w x 0.50d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780802140692","brand":"Grove Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44233576448115,"sku":"9.7808E+12","price":18.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/files\/img_7c0ab64b-64c9-4265-b046-940fbd14796a.jpg?v=1768744072","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/en-de\/products\/the-peasants-bible-and-the-story-of-the-tiger-9780802140692","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
