{"product_id":"the-instant","title":"The Instant","description":"Waterstones - The Best books of 2022: Biography\n\n'I loved this book' Raynor Winn, author of The Salt Path\n'Utterly absorbing' Lucy Jones, author of Losing Eden\n\nWishing to leave behind the quiet isolation of her Orkney island life, Amy Liptrot books a one-way flight to Berlin. Searching for new experiences, inspiration and love, she rents a loftbed in a shared flat and looks for work. She explores the streets, nightclubs and parks and seeks out the city's wildlife - goshawks, raccoons and hooded crows. She looks for love through the screen of her laptop.\n\nOver the course of a year Amy makes space hoping for the unexpected. And it comes with an erotic jolt, in the form of a love affair that obsesses her.\n\nThe Instant is an unapologetic look at the addictive power of love and lust. It is also an exploration of the cycles of the moon, the flight paths of migratory birds, the mesmerising power of Neolithic stonework and the trails followed by a generation who exist online.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1838854266\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.1838854266.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Liptrot, Amy\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Gently used with minimal wear on the corners and cover.
