{"product_id":"jordan-pete-dishwasher-9780060896423","title":"Dishwasher","description":"Dishwasher is Public Radio favorite and underground celebrity Pete Jordan's amusing memoir of his dishwashing extravaganza. Part adventure, part parody, and part miraculous journey of self-discovery, it is the unforgettable account of Jordan's transformation from itinerant seeker into \"Dishwasher Pete\"--unlikely folk hero, writer, publisher of his own cult zine, and the ultimate professional dish dog--and how he gave it all up for love.\"For 12 years, I was the most prolific dishlicker of them all. From 1989 to 2001, I dished my way around the country, unwittingly searching for direction. From a bagel joint in New Mexico to a Mexican joint in Brooklyn; from a dinner train in Rhode Island to the Lawrence Welk Resort in Branson, Missouri; from an upper-crust ladies' club to a crusty hippie commune--I washed the nation's dishes. Whether it was a gig so lousy that I walked out within an hour or one where I toiled 120 hours a week, I remained a man on a mission: to bust suds in every state in the union.\"--Pete JordanA smart, funny, and surprising look at life, Dishwasher is sure to appeal to fans of Nick Hornby and Tom Perotta.","brand":"Harper Perennial","offers":[{"title":"Used - very good","offer_id":53379047784790,"sku":"9780060896423-V","price":13.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0925\/5829\/5382\/files\/product_image_9780060896423_1_5502511d-e595-4aed-a3fe-b29dc373741a.jpg?v=1778056020","url":"https:\/\/www.momoxbooks.com\/products\/jordan-pete-dishwasher-9780060896423","provider":"momoxbooks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
