{"product_id":"1599881","title":"A Plumber's Progress : Pilgrimage To The Heart Of Tibet by W. J. O'Connell","description":"'A Plumber's Progress' is a wry, comic, self-effacing and yet impassioned account of the author's attempts to find a route to happiness and self-acceptance. He tries what has become a fairly traditional method for dissatisfied, spiritually questioning Westerners - a physical journey to the East. He climbs a sacred mountain in Tibet; this after ten years of living and working in an ashram in New York. The story is part travelogue, part spiritual quest, part autobiography. Its appeal lies in the acknowledgement that the deeper questions about mortality and meaning also afflict so-called 'ordinary' people in their daily lives, not just intellectuals and philosophers. O'Connell has a gift for understatement, and has a lovely, often unusual descriptive talent which ranges from the lyrical, to the sharp, to the very funny. \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003ctable style=\"box-shadow: none;\"\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 25%; padding: 0em; padding-left: 5px; border: 0em;\"\u003e\n\u003cb\u003ePublisher\u003c\/b\u003e:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 75%; padding: 0em; padding-left: 5px; border: 0em;\"\u003eLongacre Press\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 0em; padding-left: 5px; border: 0em;\"\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eYear\u003c\/b\u003e:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 0em; padding-left: 5px; border: 0em;\"\u003e2003\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 0em; padding-left: 5px; border: 0em;\"\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eBinding\u003c\/b\u003e:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 0em; padding-left: 5px; border: 0em;\"\u003ePaperback\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 0em; padding-left: 5px; border: 0em;\"\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eISBN\u003c\/b\u003e:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 0em; padding-left: 5px; border: 0em;\"\u003e9781877135897\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 0em; padding-left: 5px; border: 0em;\"\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eCondition\u003c\/b\u003e:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 0em; padding-left: 5px; border: 0em;\"\u003eGood\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 0em; padding-left: 5px; border: 0em;\"\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eDescription\u003c\/b\u003e:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 0em; padding-left: 5px; border: 0em;\"\u003e Some foxing inside cover pages.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eNote: This image is from a stock photo and may differ from the actual cover.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Longacre Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50044039627029,"sku":"1599881","price":19.5,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0023\/2695\/4036\/files\/1599881.jpg?v=1784270766","url":"https:\/\/bookhaven.co.nz\/products\/1599881","provider":"Book Haven","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
