As Pico Iyer writes in the introduction, \"[Prokosch] catches the peculiar logic that makes travel a land of alternative reality, a foreign state in itself that is an intoxication.\"\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Farrar, Straus and Giroux","offers":[{"title":"Asiatics | Frederic Prokosch | Paperback | 9780374529246 | Used: Very Good | Back Stacks R 1772275","offer_id":49575614349464,"sku":"1772275","price":174.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0492\/1609\/4360\/files\/71mjsRKB-mL.jpg?v=1785266007","url":"https:\/\/roundaboutbookstore.com\/products\/asiatics","provider":"Roundabout Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
