{"product_id":"9780771080333","title":"Deepwater Vee","description":"\u003cp\u003eMelanie Siebert’s stunning debut collection travels remote northern rivers, as well as two of Canada’s most threatened rivers, the Athabasca and the North Saskatchewan. These rivers push the poems into a contemplation of loss and into the terrain of Alexander Mackenzie’s dreams, a busker’s broken-down street riffs, and the borderland wanderings of a grandmother whose absence is felt as a presence. The poems’ currents are turbulent, braided, submerged. Narrative streams appear like tributaries glimpsed through brush, and then veer into unexpected territories, where boundaries blur – between the self and the other, between the living and the dead, between the human and the wild – and loss carries with it both music and silence. In this virtuoso collection, Melanie Siebert has transformed language into that rarest thing, a singular poetic vision.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"McClelland \u0026 Stewart Ltd.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47030157639920,"sku":"9780771080333","price":15.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780771080333_p0.jpg?v=1763657643","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780771080333","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
