{"product_id":"a-fable-for-critics","title":"A Fable for Critics","description":"A Fable for Critics By James Russell LowellA Fable for Critics is a book-length poem by American writer James Russell Lowell, first published anonymously in 1848. The poem made fun of well-known poets and critics of the time and brought notoriety to its author.A Fable for Critics satirized many of the most important figures in American literature at the time, including Ralph Waldo Emerson and James Fenimore Cooper. Many of his harshest judgments were aimed at names that have not survived in posterity, including Nathaniel Parker Willis, Cornelius Mathews, and Fitz-Greene Halleck. He gave ample praise to Charles Frederick Briggs and Lydia Maria Child, though he was friends with both and likely allowed his friendship to inflate his assessment of their talents. Of Edgar Allan Poe, he said he was \"three-fifths genius... and two-fifths sheer fudge\".","brand":"DD Sales","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54568828862743,"sku":"9789372445947","price":182.7,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0679\/6918\/8119\/files\/3533545.webp?v=1785406045","url":"https:\/\/payment.letskitaboo.com\/te\/products\/a-fable-for-critics","provider":"Kitaboo One eStore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
