{"product_id":"9781504029230","title":"Entering Another Country","description":"One of the first poetry books written by a woman published in the 1970s in which the poet struggles to define herself in a patriarchal society.   \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e  Review by Helen Cooper in Motheroot Journal\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e    The title poem, \"Entering Another Country\", is dedicated to a male friend who has died. There are exuberant, rich landscapes of imagined travel, journeys into the visual worlds of Grandma Moses and Rousseau, and the painful realization that what the poet means by travel is change and growth, the raw experience of self-birthing, a process into a place as unknown as the death place of her friend. Here Ortner connects with her female heritage. It is a courageous poem of breaking out, and the unfamiliar terrain into which this takes her almost robs the poet of speech.","brand":"Open Road Distribution","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47048995537136,"sku":"9781504029230","price":8.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781504029230_p0.jpg?v=1772499624","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781504029230","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
