{"product_id":"the-investigation","title":"The Investigation","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Investigation is a dramatic reconstruction of the Frankfurt War Crimes trials, based on the actual evidence given. This testimony, concerning Auschwitz and the atrocities which were enacted there, has been edited and extracted by Peter Weiss into a dramatic document that relies solely and completely on the facts for its effectiveness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThere is no artistic license, no manipulation of facts and figures, no rearrangement of events for theatrical effect. Nameless witnesses stand and recall their appalling memories of Auschwitz, allowing us to bear witness to their painful and painstaking search for truth and, ultimately, justice. What emerges is a chastening and purging documentary of deeply moving power.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003ePeter Weiss was born in 1916 and settled in Sweden before the outbreak of World War II. Apart from his writing, he was also well known as a painter, theatrical and operatic director, and a film maker. His magnificent play Marat\/Sade, which is also available from Marion Boyars Publishers, established his reputation among English-speakling audiences as a revolutionary dramatist, and has continued to be a bestselling classic. He died in 1982.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eISBN:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9780714503011, 0714503010\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Peter Weiss\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cspan style=\"display:none\"\u003e011 3011 03011 503011 010 3010 03010 503010\u003c\/span\u003e","brand":"Batner Bookstore","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43934236541016,"sku":"9780714503011","price":25.5,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0708\/7564\/3992\/files\/9780714503011.jpg?v=1775054004","url":"https:\/\/batnerbookstore.com\/products\/the-investigation","provider":"Batner Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
