{"product_id":"9781447208242","title":"Our Evenings","description":"\u003cp\u003eA tender tale of solitude and the search for beauty in the Austrian Alps, shortlisted for the Booker International Prize.   Like John Williams' Stoner or Denis Johnson's Train Dreams, A Whole Life is an exquisite novel that moves readers with its message of truth and solace. It explores the moments, both big and small, that shape our lives.   Andreas spends his entire life in the Austrian Alps, taken in by a farming family as a young boy. A man of few words, he expresses his love for Marie by having friends light her name across the mountain at dusk. When Marie dies in an avalanche, pregnant with their first child, Andreas' heart is shattered. He leaves his valley only once more, to fight in World War II, where he is taken prisoner in the Caucasus. Upon returning, he finds modernity encroaching on his remote haven. . .   ‘It is at once heart-rending and heart-warming. A Whole Life, for all its gentleness, is a very powerful book.’ – Jim Crace, author of Harvest\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"product__accordion accordion quick-add-hidden\"\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\u003cdetails id=\"Details-collapsible_tab_dDVEeR-template--25151688147283__main\"\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\u003csummary role=\"button\" aria-expanded=\"true\" aria-controls=\"ProductAccordion-collapsible_tab_dDVEeR-template--25151688147283__main\"\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\u003cdiv class=\"summary__title\"\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\u003ch2 class=\"h4 accordion__title inline-richtext\"\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tProduct Information\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\u003c\/h2\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003csvg class=\"icon icon-caret\" viewbox=\"0 0 10 6\"\u003e\u003cpath fill=\"currentColor\" fill-rule=\"evenodd\" d=\"M9.354.646a.5.5 0 0 0-.708 0L5 4.293 1.354.646a.5.5 0 0 0-.708.708l4 4a.5.5 0 0 0 .708 0l4-4a.5.5 0 0 0 0-.708\" clip-rule=\"evenodd\"\u003e\u003c\/path\u003e\u003c\/svg\u003e\r\n\t\t\u003c\/summary\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\u003cdiv class=\"accordion__content rte\" id=\"ProductAccordion-collapsible_tab_dDVEeR-template--25151688147283__main\"\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan class=\"metafield-multi_line_text_field\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Robert Seethaler\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eBinding:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eDate of Publication:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/10\/2015\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003ePagination:\u003c\/b\u003e 160 pages\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eSeries:\u003c\/b\u003e N\/A\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eImprint:\u003c\/b\u003e Picador\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003ePublished By:\u003c\/b\u003e PAN MACMILLAN\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eBook Classification:\u003c\/b\u003e Modern \u0026amp; contemporary fiction (post c 1945)\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/b\u003e 132 x 198 x 12\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eISBN13\/EAN\/SKU:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781447283904\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\u003c\/div\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\t\u003c\/details\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Robert Seethaler","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55698865848706,"sku":"9781447208242","price":9.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/2180\/9347\/files\/9781447208242_2af91036-a13e-441e-bd35-a3561502669c.jpg?v=1760627151","url":"https:\/\/mountfloridabooks.com\/products\/9781447208242","provider":"Mount Florida Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
