Seeking refuge from the storm in town, he makes his way through a difficult and dangerous mountain pass, only to abandon his original plan and return home. A compelling meditation by one of Frischs most original characters, Man in the Holocene charts Geisers desperate attempt to find his place in history and in the confusing and fragile world outside his window.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51326151196960,"sku":"NEW1564784665","price":19.94,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/510fN-SoWuL.jpg?v=1773160595","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/man-in-the-holocene-1564784665","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
