Finally, they arrive at the sometimes heartbreaking but ultimately optimistic realization that the answers they seek lie not in other people or places but within themselves. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eLimbo, and Other Places I Have Lived\u003c\/em\u003e is a brilliant collection from a writer of exceptional poise and insight.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Harper Perennial","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46825242263807,"sku":"9780060934859","price":12.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/9780060934859_s600x595.jpg?v=1779893881","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/de\/products\/9780060934859","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
