{"product_id":"they-all-love-jack-busting-the-ripper","title":"They All Love Jack: Busting the Ripper","description":"\u003cp\u003eLONGLISTED FOR THE SAMUEL JOHNSON PRIZE FOR NON-FICTIONA\u003cbr\u003e\n book like no other - the tale of a gripping quest to discover the \u003cbr\u003e\nidentity of history's most notorious murderer and a literary high-wire \u003cbr\u003e\nact from the legendary writer and director of Withnail and I.For \u003cbr\u003e\nover a hundred years,  the mystery of Jack the Ripper' has been a source\u003cbr\u003e\n of unparalleled fascination and horror, spawning an army of obsessive \u003cbr\u003e\ntheorists, and endless volumes purporting finally to reveal the identity\u003cbr\u003e\n of the brutal murderer who terrorised Victorian England.But what\u003cbr\u003e\n if there was never really any  mystery' at all? What if the Ripper was \u003cbr\u003e\nalways hiding in plain sight, deliberately leaving a trail of clues to \u003cbr\u003e\nhis identity for anyone who cared to look, while cynically mocking those\u003cbr\u003e\n who were supposedly attempting to bring him to justice?In THEY \u003cbr\u003e\nALL LOVE JACK, the award-winning film director and screenwriter Bruce \u003cbr\u003e\nRobinson exposes the cover-up that enabled one of history's most \u003cbr\u003e\nnotorious serial killers to remain at large. More than twelve years in \u003cbr\u003e\nthe writing, this is much more than a radical reinterpretation of the \u003cbr\u003e\nJack the Ripper legend, and an enthralling hunt for the killer. A \u003cbr\u003e\nliterary high-wire act reminiscent of Tom Wolfe or Hunter S. Thompson, \u003cbr\u003e\nit is an expressionistic journey through the cesspools of late-Victorian\u003cbr\u003e\n society, a phantasmagoria of highly placed villains, hypocrites and \u003cbr\u003e\ninstitutionalised corruption.Polemic, forensic investigation, \u003cbr\u003e\npanoramic portrait of an age, underpinned by deep scholarship and \u003cbr\u003e\ndelivered in Robinson's inimitably vivid and scabrous prose, THEY ALL \u003cbr\u003e\nLOVE JACK is an absolutely riveting and unique book, demolishing the \u003cbr\u003e\ntheories of generations of self-appointed experts - the so-called \u003cbr\u003e\n Ripperologists' - to make clear, at last, who really did it; and more \u003cbr\u003e\nimportantly, how he managed to get away with it for so long.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bruce Robinson","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44225574174780,"sku":"9780007548903","price":746.25,"currency_code":"PKR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0714\/7706\/7836\/files\/they-all-love-jack-busting-the-ripper-9780007548903.jpg?v=1776773644","url":"https:\/\/libertybooksstore.myshopify.com\/products\/they-all-love-jack-busting-the-ripper","provider":"LibertyBooksStore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
