I click to buy it and I'm furious to discover that it's not available in Ireland and they won't post it from abroad and the only place that sells it is Harrods and it's impossible for me to go to Harrods because it's like being trapped in an Escher painting.

In "The Break" by Marian Keyes, a character experiences frustration when trying to purchase an item online. After clicking to buy, they are dismayed to learn that the product is unavailable in Ireland and cannot be shipped internationally. This leads to anger as their options are severely limited.

Furthermore, the only retailer offering the desired item is Harrods, which complicates matters. The character feels hopelessly confined, likening the situation to being trapped in an Escher painting, reflecting a sense of labyrinthine entrapment and the difficulty of accessing what they want.
