{"product_id":"my-life","title":"My Life","description":"Marc Chagall's colourful, hilarious, dream-like autobiography\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChagall was born in Witebsk in White Russia, the son of a herring merchant who lived opposite a laundress and a chimney sweep. After the Revolution, while waiting for emigration papers, he wrote his autobiography at the age of 34.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eMy Life\u003c\/i\u003e reads like one of Chagall's paintings: emotional, fragmentary, humorous, colourful and dream-like, soaked in nostalgia for Jewish small-town society, familiar to us from \u003ci\u003eThe Fiddler on the Roof\u003c\/i\u003e. It combines a colourist's eye for detail, an artist's passion for life, a satirical sense of humour with a backdrop of Belle  poque Paris and revolutionary Russia. The character sketches are magnificent.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChagall produced 50 illustrations which accompany the text. The first English translation of \u003ci\u003eMy Life \u003c\/i\u003ewas published in 1965 and it has been in print ever since.","brand":"Marc Chagall","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43515640512573,"sku":null,"price":21.84,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0597\/7689\/2989\/files\/9780241331415.jpg?v=1787487316","url":"https:\/\/www.palmleaf.com.au\/products\/my-life","provider":"Palmleaf","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
