{"product_id":"9781571314864","title":"Another City","description":"How does it feel to experience another city? To stand beneath tall buildings, among the countless faces of a crowd? To attempt to be heard above the din?\u003cp\u003eThe poems of \u003ci\u003eAnother City\u003c\/i\u003e travel inward and outward at once: into moments of self-reproach and grace, and to those of disassociation and belonging. From experiences defined by an urban landscape—a thwarted customer at the door of a shuttered bookstore in Crete, a chance encounter with a might-have-been lover in Copenhagen—to the streets themselves, where “an alley was a comma in the agony’s grammar,” in David Keplinger’s hands startling images collide and mingle like bodies on a busy thoroughfare.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYet \u003ci\u003eAnother City\u003c\/i\u003e deftly spans not only the physical space of global cities, but more intangible and intimate distances: between birth and death, father and son, past and present, metaphor and reality. In these poems, our entry into the world is when “the wound, called loneliness, \/ opens,” and our voyage out of it is through a foreign but not entirely unfamiliar constellations of cities: Cherbourg, Manila, Port-au-Prince.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA moving, haunting atlas to worlds both interior and exterior.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Milkweed Editions","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47049808445680,"sku":"9781571314864","price":16.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781571314864_p0.jpg?v=1763767343","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781571314864","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
