{"product_id":"britt-gun-sundstrom-engagement-9780241688120","title":"Engagement","description":"A feminist cult classic about love, independence and what it means to be an individual, translated into English for the first time 'I want to have him, I really do. I just don't want him to have me.' Martina and Gustav, students in 1970s Stockholm, meet and fall immediately into coupledom. But what is coupledom? A route to marriage? A declaration of co-dependency? A new dimension of commitment and responsibility? A sexual confrontation? Or is it a habit that an intelligent person must consider breaking? Martina and Gustav discuss their relationship endlessly, between themselves and with others, as they try to make it work. Engagement, set during a time of social change and political upheaval, sees Martina trying to engage with the world on her own terms. Unwilling to marry, she finds herself in a state of permanent engagement while her friends settle down to marriage and children; uncertain of the world's future, she engages with demos, sit-ins and philosophy seminars in her quest for a new blueprint for joy. First published in 1976, when it was heralded as an instant classic, Engagement remains as relevant, hilarious and heartbreaking today.","brand":"Penguin Books Ltd (UK)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53706741219670,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0925\/5829\/5382\/files\/product_image_9780241688120_1.jpg?v=1778869807","url":"https:\/\/www.momoxbooks.com\/products\/britt-gun-sundstrom-engagement-9780241688120","provider":"momoxbooks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
