{"product_id":"the-journey-is-home-john-sam-jones-9781914595103","title":"The Journey Is Home: Notes from a Life on the Edge","description":"In this clear and absorbing memoir, John Sam Jones writes of a life lived on the edge. It's a story of journeys and realisation, of acceptance and joy. From a boyhood on the coast of Wales to a traumatic period as an undergraduate in Aberystwyth, and on to a scholarship at Berkley on the San Francisco Bay as the AIDS epidemic began to take hold, before returning to Liverpool and north Wales to work in chaplaincy, education, and sexual health. A journey of becoming a writer and chronicler of his experiences with award-winning books and the somewhat reluctant compulsion to become a campaigner for LGBT rights in Wales. The adventure of running a guest house in Barmouth where he eventually became Mayor with his husband, a German academic, whom he had married after a long partnership. Just days after European Referendum, they put the business on the market...and then moved to Germany. John is still on that journey.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e John Sam Jones\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1914595106\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781914595103\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Parthian\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/07\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 212\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback","brand":"John Sam Jones","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44073348399359,"sku":"9781914595103","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_2d2ff391-e5e8-4c57-96a9-a7d540b3134c.jpg?v=1685447296","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-journey-is-home-john-sam-jones-9781914595103","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
