{"product_id":"blind-masseuse-alden-jones-9780299295745","title":"The Blind Masseuse: A Traveler's Memoir from Costa Rica to Cambodia","description":"Through personal journeys both interior and across the globe, Alden Jones investigates what motivates us to travel abroad in search of the unfamiliar. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBy way of explorations to Costa Rica, Bolivia, Nicaragua, Cuba, Burma, Cambodia, Egypt, and around the world on a ship, Jones chronicles her experience as a young American traveler while pondering her role as an outsider in the cultures she temporarily inhabits. Her wanderlust fuels a strong, high-adventure story and, much in the vein of classic travel literature, Jones's picaresque tale of personal evolution informs her own transitions, rites of passage, and understandings of her place as a citizen of the world. With sharp insight and stylish prose, Jones asks: Is there a right or wrong way to travel? The Blind Masseuse concludes that there is, but that it's not always black and white. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Alden Jones\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0299295745\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780299295745\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Wisconsin Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/14\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 192\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.50lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.20h x 5.40w x 0.60d","brand":"Alden Jones","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44132598874367,"sku":"9780299295745","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_3f574c8a-c576-4c29-aeb9-371eb112db01.jpg?v=1687481161","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/blind-masseuse-alden-jones-9780299295745","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
