{"product_id":"the-white-dominican-9781912868384","title":"The White Dominican","description":"The White Dominican is Meyrink's most esoteric novel, and draws on the wisdom of a number of mystical traditions, the most important of which is Tao. It is set in a mystical version of the Bavarian town of Wassserburg which sits on a promontory surrounded on three sides by the river Inn. The novel describes the spiritual journey of the simple hero, who, guided by a number of figures including his eccentric father, the spirit of of a distant ancestor, the protecting presence of his dead lover and the mysterious figure of the White Dominican, escapes the 'Medusa head' of the world to a transfiguration, through which he joins the 'living chain that stretches to infinity'.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Dedalus\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/31\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781912868384\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 165\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.43lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.75h x 5.12w x 0.75d","brand":"Gustav Meyrink","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40189697032373,"sku":"9781912868384","price":11.89,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_f90bbe50-99c9-45ce-8325-8f06de35354e.jpg?v=1623126348","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/the-white-dominican-9781912868384","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
