It is a gripping, profound reading experience - as startling, in its different way, as Hesse's Siddhartha and Steppenwolf.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Penguin Classics","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52898827141429,"sku":"EB_LI0700_A01-03_DUBAI","price":69.0,"currency_code":"AED","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0971\/7773\/1381\/files\/9780141984612-1_1652fc78-a5f6-4742-9046-a972f0b8844f.jpg?v=1791083602","url":"https:\/\/kinokuniya.ae\/ja\/products\/9780141984612","provider":"Books Kinokuniya UAE","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
