{"product_id":"9781632100221","title":"A Woman Walking","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn this timeless folktale, a young woman named Ninan inherits an unwelcome legacy: being a traveling storyteller like her grandfather. On each step of Ninan's journey, she tells a unique and universal story that speaks to the families at the hearth. At first, stories erupt from her unbidden and uncontrolled, and the nomadic life is an occupation, not a joy. She yearns for love and comfort. Ninan walks on, though, in a spiral of self-discovery, exploring people's deepest needs and emotions. Ninan learns that every story is a kind of gently magic, and she embraces her life as a woman walking.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe tell stories to make sense of our lives. Storytelling is not only a source of meaning but of survival. In Nancy King's mythic tale WOMAN WALKING a young girl has to chose between staying home in an ordinary life and taking on the task of travel and story making. A bit of fairy tale, a bit of Ursula LeGuin, and the author's own vision bring these tales to life. =Miriam Sagan, Gossip, Tres Chicas Books; Map of the Lost, UNM Press  \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Plain View Press, LLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47032129323248,"sku":"9781632100221","price":15.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781632100221_p0.jpg?v=1763673621","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781632100221","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
