{"product_id":"glowing-still","title":"Glowing Still","description":"\u003cp\u003eSara Wheeler is Britain's foremost woman travel writer.  Glowing Still is the story of her travelling life - what is 'important, revealing or funny' - in a notoriously testosterone-laden field.  Growing up among blue-collar Conservatives in Bristol where 'we didn't know anyone who wasn't like us', Wheeler knew she needed to get away. In her twenties she began a dramatic escape: Pole to Pole, via Poland.  Glowing Still recalls happy days on India's Puri Express; an Antarctic lavatory through which a seal popped up (hot fishy breath!); and the louche  life of a Parisian shopgirl. Corralling reindeer with the Sámi in Arctic Sweden and towing her baby on a sledge, a helpful herdsman advised her to put foil down her bra to facilitate nursing.\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003eAs she writes in the introduction, when she set sail 'Role models were scarce in the travel-writing game.' But advancing years usher in unheralded freedoms, and journey's end finds Wheeler at peace among Zanzibar dhows, contemplating our connection with other lives -  the irreplaceable value that travel brings -  and paying homage to her heroines, among them Martha Gellhorn, the ineffable war correspondent who furnishes Wheeler's epigraph: 'I do not wish to be good. I wish to be hell on wheels, or dead.'\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sara Wheeler","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44965884788783,"sku":"9781408716731","price":1699.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0743\/6428\/9071\/files\/9781408716731.jpg?v=1771387509","url":"https:\/\/lunabooks.in\/products\/glowing-still","provider":"Luna Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
