{"product_id":"2940157428983","title":"The Old Man in the Attic: The Search for the Answers to Life's Meaning","description":"Who can answer the age-old question \"Why am I here?\" Sebastian, the Old Man, encounters his answers on his daily strolls. They come not through long essays or deep philosophical musings but through encounters with his friends--a young fatherless boy named Miguel, a Russian immigrant called Alexi, and Vivian, a retired nurse.\u003cbr\u003eHe has finished his book, an ardent writing task, believing that one's essence unfolds like a novel with chapters penned by life's trials and joys. His response to the trials and joys offers a glimpse into his soul.\u003cbr\u003eVivian and Sebastian visit the town library, where he places his book on a shelf as if letting it go for one last time. For whom?\u003cbr\u003eThen Vivian walks him home and they bid good night. The next day fearing a shocking surprise, she brings the doctor. Together they find a present marked for Miguel at the foot of the Old Man's bed. They both see the nearly empty pill bottle, but Vivian suspects the worst.","brand":"Page Publishing, Inc.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47083944280304,"sku":"2940157428983","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940157428983_p0.jpg?v=1764095646","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940157428983","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
