{"product_id":"a-dramatically-different-direction-margaret-mann-9781463660659","title":"A Dramatically Different Direction","description":"A Dramatically Different Direction is a poignant, funny, and heart rendering autobiographical commentary on disability by a 66 year old, bi-racial, lesbian, Buddhist in a wheelchair. With razor sharp wit and well balanced cynicism Margaret Mann shares her unique perspective in a series of essays that offer uplifting insights about the nature of suffering. She has a keen awareness of how each of us will suffer in life to the same degree we wish things were different. From her perspective as a Buddhist, Margaret offers advice on how to deal with the sudden onset of a serious disability and the slippery slope of aging.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Margaret Mann\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1463660650\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781463660659\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/21\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 204\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.62lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.02h x 5.98w x 0.43d","brand":"Margaret Mann","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45481941369087,"sku":"9781463660659","price":12.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_4767fb82-e188-44c5-99c3-ff86e51d41d4.jpg?v=1715988120","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/a-dramatically-different-direction-margaret-mann-9781463660659","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
