{"product_id":"mooncop","title":"Mooncop","description":"Bestselling author Tom Gauld s comedic still life of a moon colony in decline now in paperback.    Living on the moon . . . Whatever were we thinking? . . . It seems so silly now.    The lunar colony is slowly winding down, like a small town circumvented by a brand-new super highway. Our hero, the Mooncop makes his daily rounds, his beat growing ever smaller as the population dwindles. His most pressing engagements: a young runaway who doesn t get very far, a dog breaking off his leash, and an out-of-date automaton wandering off from the Museum of the Moon. What s a man on the moon to do as human company gets harder and harder to come by?   Now available in paperback for the first time, Tom Gauld s Mooncop is a prescient reflection on humanity besieged by late-stage capitalism and ever advancing technology. Equal parts funny and melancholy, Gauld s matter-of-fact storytelling is a testament to his dedication to the craft of cartooning.","brand":"Tom Gauld","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67669998600370,"sku":"9781770469235","price":455.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0562\/9191\/8002\/files\/9781770469235.jpg?v=1791596460","url":"https:\/\/www.wordsworth.co.za\/products\/mooncop","provider":"Wordsworth Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
