{"product_id":"9780486850351","title":"The Bridge of San Luis Rey by Thornton Wilder","description":"In eighteenth-century Peru, a historic bridge connecting the cities of Cuzco and Lima collapses, plunging five people to their deaths. A Franciscan monk, Brother Juniper, witnesses the tragedy and embarks on a spiritual quest to reconcile free will versus fate and the existence of God in the victims' lives: \"Why did this happen to those five people?\" This thought-provoking, Pulitzer Prize-winning second novel by American writer Thornton Wilder was called \"a masterpiece\" by The New York Times when it was published in 1927. Critically acclaimed, it remains a compelling literary classic exploring destiny, love, religion, and the meaning of life.\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback \/ softback","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56290294137205,"sku":"9780486850351","price":3.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9780486850351.jpg?v=1762731008","url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/products\/9780486850351","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
