{"product_id":"nylon-hotel","title":"Nylon Hotel","description":"\u003cp\u003eCycling Myanmar, Mandalay, and the Nylon Hotel over three decades, Daniel Ehrlich opens a series of windows onto people and places held captive in time. Through beautifully crafted vignettes of coming and going, meeting and waiting, we are invited to get to know a prince among sidecar drivers, and anglophile living on the banks on the Irrawaddy, a long-haired freedom fighting musician, an octogenarian English teacher who might have been a princess, and the inventor who built a helicopter out of teak. Each story, in its own way, reflects the tragedy of a country trapped under military rule. But each contains human possibilities, fragile hope for the future, and the connections to deeper traditions in which darkness is a necessary counterpart to the light.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“\u003cem\u003eEhrlich writes with warmth, insight, and a good deal of humour. This book should be required reading for all who are friends of Burma and who wish a better and free future for the Burmese people\u003c\/em\u003e”. \u003cstrong\u003eRichard Axelby\u003c\/strong\u003e, SOAS, University of London\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"River Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54230405775704,"sku":"9786164510968","price":17.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9786164510968.jpg?v=1777209334","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/nylon-hotel","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
