Her third book intimately chronicles the gratitude, fears and contemplations in the life of one person during the three pandemic years, using an ancient cadence of days. Her beliefs about the importance of appreciation, while more pagan and idiosyncratic than the original spiritual history and guidance of the Books of Hours, share a common core of praise and valuing the diversity of life and the universe.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 140\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.33 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e January 23, 2023\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42125283623047,"sku":"9781421835327","price":28.8,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0601\/2623\/2711\/files\/a517901b32b0d5a29b19d10aed3d5899.webp?v=1732576559","url":"https:\/\/booksby.splitshops.com\/products\/all-in-measure-a-book-of-hours-2020-2022-paperback","provider":"Books by splitShops","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
