{"product_id":"9781555973025","title":"Bewitched Playground","description":"\u003cp\u003eA kind of \"public dreaming\" takes place via the music of these poems--a music as likely to visit the long-dead ghosts of the Kwakiutl tribe as Gianni Versace, and as interested in the baby seat of a car as it is in a boxing ring. Building on the critical success of David Rivard's two earlier, award-winning books, \u003ci\u003eBewitched Playground\u003c\/i\u003e widens both his emotional aperture and formal range. Rivard calls it \"my book of domestic voodoo\"--not a book \u003ci\u003eabout\u003c\/i\u003e having a child, but written out of a life touched by a new intimacy, and tuned-in to an unwilled strangeness, a fluctuating gravity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHere, the unconscious forces of the imagination intersect with the everyday, in a crossroads at the bewitched playground. These stylistically innovative poems are full of the rediscovery that the world teems with \"otherness,\" with freshness and surprise.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Graywolf Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47055438282992,"sku":"9781555973025","price":12.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781555973025_p0.jpg?v=1763755562","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781555973025","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
