{"product_id":"the-wings-of-creation","title":"The Wings of Creation","description":"Two decades after their first meeting as 20-year-old freshmen at the Ecole normale superieure, Karol Beffa held the Chair of Artistic Creation at the College de France, and Cedric Villani was Director of the Institut Henri-Poincare at the Sorbonne University. They had two public discussions in 2012 and 2014, and these dialogues - on profession, creation, style, pastiche, fellow travellers, mentors, suffering, and constraints - became a book.   The Wings of Creations is translated from Les Coulisses de la creation (Flammarion, 2015). Karol Beffa is a musician. Cedric Villani is a mathematician.","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57510174425461,"sku":"9781916658295","price":18.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/products\/the-wings-of-creation","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
