{"product_id":"9781551996547","title":"Two Bowls of Milk","description":"The poems of Stephanie Bolster’s second collection move with delicacy and power, whether focussing on a flock of snow geese on a flooded plain, on the paintings of Jean Paul Lemieux, or on two wasps in a Pepsi can on the steps of the Metropolitan Museum of Art. These intimate acts of language create a space infused with stillness and an edgy expectation. Here is a poetry of engagement and mystery, in which truth is found in seepage and reversal: the bowls of milk the colour of milk; the two facing human profiles forming between them the shape of a vase. This volume sketches a clear, unwavering arc through poems sometimes raw and painful, but always exquisite, and, ultimately, transformative. \u003ci\u003eTwo Bowls of Milk\u003c\/i\u003e confirms Stephanie Bolster as one of the most gifted new poets in Canada today.\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":47128411767024,"sku":"9781551996547","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781551996547_p0.jpg?v=1763754864","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781551996547","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
