Her new collection, \u003ci\u003eThe Apothecary's Heir\u003c\/i\u003e, depicts a damaged world in which the speaker is trying to make sense of human relationships in the aftermath of loss. A series of meditations on landscapes of our postmodern world—a sickbed, a gas station, a bomb shelter, a rest stop along a highway—these supple poems explore the frailty of human connectedness and anatomize desire in a world of pharmaceuticals and microchips.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Penguin Publishing Group","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47014640550128,"sku":"9780143121411","price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780143121411_p0.jpg?v=1763656778","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780143121411","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
