Roger Scruton evokes a world in which every word and gesture bears a double meaning, as people seek to find truth amid the lies and love in the midst of betrayal. The novel tells the story of Jan Reichl, condemned to a menial life by his father's alleged crime, and of Betka, the girl who offers him education, opportunity and love, but who mysteriously refuses to commit herself.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fiction","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":45372854698208,"sku":"Books:9780825307850n","price":14.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0628\/5911\/6768\/files\/scru.jpg?v=1713908166","url":"https:\/\/theswordandshovel.com\/products\/notes-from-underground-scruton-paperback","provider":"Sword \u0026 Shovel (403)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
