{"product_id":"the-shock-of-love-david-appelbaum-9780984639236","title":"The Shock of Love","description":"THE SHOCK of LOVE is a book about spirit. It is a book within a book. The book found within is a manuscript entitled THE SHOCK of LOVE. It is purportedly written by Paolo Cellini, Professor of Romance Languages and a student of the era of the troubadours and courtly love. Based on the idea of a book of the heart, current during that time, it is divided into nine chapters that give allegorical detail of the journey of love, a love that completes the spirit in a person. There the reader follows the courtship, the 'alchemical' marriage, and the dark gestation before emerging transformed and completed. The outer book, the book that encloses the found manuscript, tells the story of Cellini as well as speculating on why it came to be written.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e David Appelbaum\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0984639233\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780984639236\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e All Things That Matter Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/15\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 140\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.43lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.30d","brand":"David Appelbaum","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47244023562495,"sku":"9780984639236","price":16.24,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_5169877b-8cfd-47c5-b422-594aca984375.jpg?v=1758134747","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-shock-of-love-david-appelbaum-9780984639236","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
