{"product_id":"becoming-myself-book-irvin-d-yalom-9780349410074","title":"Becoming Myself","description":"'I was born in Washington, DC, June 13, 1931, of parents who immigrated from Russia shortly after the first world war. Home was the inner city of Washington - a small apartment atop my parents' grocery store on First and Seaton Street. During my childhood, Washington was a segregated city, and I lived in the midst of a poor, black neighborhood. Life on the streets was often perilous. Indoor reading was my refuge and, twice a week, I made the hazardous bicycle trek to the central library at Seventh and K streets to stock up on supplies'.   Irvin Yalom is a gifted and lyrical writer whose memoir traces his life, from the apartment above his parents' grocery store to a world stage via the intimacy of his consulting room. The memoir includes his self-analysis and is interwoven with vignettes from patients whose stories have played such a central role in his life.   For his legion of fans, and anyone interested in the human psyche, this book is not to be missed.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50348321669393,"sku":"CIN0349410070G","price":12.64,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50732637880593,"sku":"GOR011935155","price":19.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":51273290809617,"sku":"GOR009312040","price":25.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0349410070.jpg?v=1750696545","url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/products\/becoming-myself-book-irvin-d-yalom-9780349410074","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
