{"product_id":"9781511310406","title":"Man on Wire","description":"\u003cp\u003eMore than a quarter-century before September 11, 2001, the World Trade Center was immortalized by an act of unprecedented daring and beauty. In August 1974, a young Frenchman named Philippe Petit boldly—and illegally—fixed a rope between the tops of the still-young Twin Towers, a quarter mile off the ground. At daybreak, thousands of spectators gathered to watch in awe and adulation as he traversed the rope a full eight times in the course of an hour. In \u003ci\u003eMan on Wire\u003c\/i\u003e, Petit recounts the six years he spent preparing for this achievement. It is a fitting tribute to those lost, but not forgotten, symbols of human aspiration—the Twin Towers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Brilliance Audio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47034158678256,"sku":"9781511310406","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781511310406_p0.jpg?v=1763722981","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781511310406","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
