Here, Lynn Crosbie creates a bold fusion of genres by taking traditional elements of the novel – dialogue, plot, and description – and weaving them through a series of narratively linked poems. Centering on a man and a woman obsessively drawn to each other, \u003ci\u003eMissing Children\u003c\/i\u003e unfolds around a forbidden relationship and a series of letters, written by the protagonist, to the parents of missing children. Infused with psychological insight, rich in cultural iconography, and written in spare, clear language, \u003ci\u003eMissing Children\u003c\/i\u003e takes us to the moral fringes of society and challenges us to judge what we find. Crosbie breaks new stylistic and dramatic ground in this compelling, original collection.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eFrom the Trade Paperback edition.\u003c\/i\u003e","brand":"McClelland \u0026 Stewart","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47145514369264,"sku":"9781551995151","price":13.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781551995151_p0.jpg?v=1763757283","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781551995151","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
