He modelled the villagers on people he had known intimately and their talk, full of observation and humour, is a constant delight.","brand":"99bookscart","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47502990934230,"sku":"9780140431230","price":99.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/3978\/3382\/files\/33c1ccc6c559.jpg?v=1765097054","url":"https:\/\/99bookscart.com\/products\/under-the-greenwood-tree-1","provider":"99bookscart","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
