{"product_id":"9780819571687","title":"Apples from Shinar: A Book of Poems","description":"Apples from Shinar was Hyam Plutzik’s second complete collection. Originally published in 1959 as a part of Wesleyan University Press’s newly minted poetry series, the collection includes “The Shepherd”—a section of the book-length poem “Horatio,” which earned Plutzik a finalist position for the Pulitzer Prize. “The love and the words and the simplicity,” that mark Plutzik’s poetry, writes Philip Booth, “are all here [in Apples from Shinar], and the poems come peacefully, and wonderfully, alive.” With a previously unpublished foreword by Hyam Plutzik and a new afterword by David Scott Kastan, this edition marks the centenary of Plutzik’s birth and will introduce a new generation of readers to the work of one of the best mid-century American poets.","brand":"Wesleyan University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47118901281008,"sku":"9780819571687","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780819571687_p0.jpg?v=1763750993","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780819571687","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
