{"product_id":"9780992509767","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.' From 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.\" ~Charles Bane, Jr., author of The Chapbook, Love Poems; creator of The Meaning Of Poetry series for the Gutenberg Project, current nominee as Poet Laureate of Florida.","brand":"Vine Leaves Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47106498494704,"sku":"9780992509767","price":3.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780992509767_p0.jpg?v=1763945609","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780992509767","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
