{"product_id":"therapy-9780140249002","title":"Therapy","description":"By all appearances, Laurence Passmore is sitting pretty. True, he is almost bald and his nickname in \"Tubby\", but the TV sitcom he writes keeps the money coming in, he has an exclusive house in Rummridge, a state-of-the-art car, a vigorous sex life with his wife of thirty years, and a platonic mistress to talk shop with. What money can't buy, and his many therapists can't deliver, is contentment. It's not the trouble behind the scenes of his TV show that's bugging him or even the persistent pain in his knee; it's this deeper, nameless unease. Is it a spiritual crisis or just one of the midlife variety?\u003cp\u003eTubby's quest for the source of it will lead into an obsession with Kierkegaard, brushes with the police, gossip-column notoriety, and strange beds and bedrooms worldwide.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e David Lodge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Penguin Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/01\/1996\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 336\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.50lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.72h x 5.24w x 0.63d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780140249002\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e 07\/28\/1996 pg. 28\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/08\/1996 pg. 101\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/20\/1996\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDavid Lodge is the author of twelve novels and a novella, including the Booker Prize finalists \u003cb\u003eSmall World\u003c\/b\u003e and \u003cb\u003eNice Work\u003c\/b\u003e.
