{"product_id":"9780992509750","title":"We All Reach the Earth by Falling","description":"In this stunning collection, Bauke Kamstra has scooped out the hollow of nature and returned with the expressions of its soul. Everywhere the poet looks, he sees acutely: a tree ‘has earned\/its suffering\/and its pieces\/falling,’ and of the people who live in its river weathering, Kamstra remembers that ‘my mother's accordion\/played so\/many hymns\/but the ecstasy\/was all hers.’ \u003cp\u003eFrom the opening poem, in which a woman’s washing reveals her violence, to his lament that he is returning with a war poem but not his leg, ‘because my leg died there,’ Kamstra reveals himself as a deeply gifted poet. Emily Dickinson would have kept this collection nearby.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vine Leaves Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49997662617840,"sku":"9780992509750","price":9.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780992509750","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
