Although they were published separately, these two books, along with \u003cb\u003eSkin Divers\u003c\/b\u003e, a collection of Michaels's newest work, were written as companion volumes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePoems\u003c\/b\u003e brings all three books together for the first time, creating for American readers a wonderful introduction to Anne Michaels's poetry. Meditative and insightful, powerful and heart-moving, these are poems that, as Michael Ondaatje has written, \"go way beyond games or fashion or politics . . . They represent the human being entire.\"\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Knopf Doubleday Publishing Group","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47024787718384,"sku":"9780375702259","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780375702259_p0.jpg?v=1763691398","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780375702259","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
