{"product_id":"9780143530244","title":"Spud Exit, Pursued by a Bear","description":"After an unexpected and diabolical farewell breakfast conversation with his father, Spud Milton returns to boarding school for his 1993 Matric year, his last as a schoolboy. Armed with a prefects’ tie and a raging libido, Spud soon discovers that being a large(ish) fish in a small pond has its fair share of challenges. He finds himself embroiled in fighting for his own room, directing a house play where both lead actors refuse to learn their lines, and assisting in Vern Blackadder’s dramatic return from the dead with nothing more than a drip cord and a pair of oven gloves. Amidst mounting pressure in the classroom and on the cricket field, Spud prepares to face down the most feared and dreaded challenge of them all—finding a date for the Matric dance. In this hilarious final installment of the Spud series, John Van de Ruit brings to a close his savagely funny blow by blow account of the agonies of growing up. The embarrassments, thrills, defeats, and the sheer-absurdity of daily life are wittily recorded in Spud’s unique voice as he prepares to make his own exit, pursued by a bear.","brand":"BOOKSITE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":32039903953011,"sku":"9780143530244","price":265.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2291\/7991\/products\/spud-exit-pursued-by-a-bear-john-van-de-ruit-15208547778675.jpg?v=1637967237","url":"https:\/\/www.readerswarehouse.shop\/products\/9780143530244","provider":"Readers Warehouse","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
