{"product_id":"9780988735521","title":"Beast","description":"\u003cbr\u003ePoetry. In BEAST, Frances Justine Post explores the destruction and eventual reclaiming of the self following loss. Many of the poems make up a series of \"self-portraits\" that explore the psychological core of intimacy with its inherent devotion and betrayal, reward and punishment. In one, she is a wolf; in another, an equestrian and her horse; then a tornado, the dropped crumbs of a beloved, a pack of hounds, and finally a cannibal. The self changes form and species and switches from one voice to multiple voices. Each poem attempts to reinvent the self and alter it as a way of trying to understand what remains after devastation.","brand":"Augury Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47010118467824,"sku":"9780988735521","price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780988735521_p0.jpg?v=1763886945","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780988735521","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
