{"product_id":"9781447238102","title":"Hill of Doors","description":"Charged with strangeness and beauty, \u003ci\u003eHill of Doors\u003c\/i\u003e is a haunted and haunting book, where each successive poem seems a shape conjured from the shadows, and where the uncanny is made physically present. The collection sees the return of some familiar members of the Robertson company, including Strindberg – heading, as usual, towards calamity – and the shape-shifter Dionysus. Four loose retellings of stories of the Greek god form pillars for the book, alongside four short Ovid versions. Threaded through these are a series of pieces about the poet’s childhood on the north-east coast, his fascination with the sea and the islands of Scotland. However, the reader will also discover a distinct new note in Robertson’s austere but ravishing poetry: towards the possibility of contentment – a house, a door, a key – finding, at last, a ‘happiness of the hand and heart’. Magisterial in its command and range, indelibly moving and memorable in its speech, \u003ci\u003eHill of Doors\u003c\/i\u003e is Robin Robertson’s most powerful book to date.","brand":"Pan Macmillan","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47128633802992,"sku":"9781447238102","price":10.28,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781447238102_p0.jpg?v=1763829467","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781447238102","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
