{"product_id":"ancient-light","title":"Ancient Light","description":"'Billy Gray was my best friend and I fell in love with his mother.' Alexander Cleave, an actor who thinks his best days are behind him, remembers his first unlikely affair as a teenage boy in a small town in 1950s Ireland: the illicit meetings in a rundown cottage outside town; assignations in the back of his lover's car on sunny mornings, rain-soaked afternoons. And with these early memories comes something sharper and much darker - the more recent recollection of the actor's own daughter's suicide ten years before. Ancient Light is the story of a life rendered brilliantly vivid: the obsession and selfishness of young love and the terrifying shock of grief. It is a dazzling novel, funny, utterly pleasurable and devastatingly moving in the same moment.\u003cspan class=\"booksy-isbn-search\" style=\"position:absolute;left:-9999px;width:1px;height:1px;overflow:hidden;\" aria-hidden=\"true\"\u003eISBN: 9780670920624\u003c\/span\u003e","brand":"John Banville","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56566169633154,"sku":"9780670920624","price":77.99,"currency_code":"RON","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0933\/1500\/6850\/files\/B1231108.jpg?v=1776318547","url":"https:\/\/www.booksy.ro\/products\/ancient-light","provider":"Booksy","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
