Smith), Dorothea Lasky’s \u003cem\u003eROME\u003c\/em\u003e confronts love and heartbreak in the modern world.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  Dorothea Lasky is one of the most talented American poets of her generation. With haunting lines that “recall Frank O’Hara and Allen Ginsberg” (\u003cem\u003eChicago Tribune\u003c\/em\u003e) and influences ranging from Drake to Catullus, Lasky fuses the ancient world with the fierceness and heartbreak of everyday life. With each new book, from the grand religiosity of \u003cem\u003eAWE\u003c\/em\u003e to the flat sadness and nihilism of \u003cem\u003eBlack Life\u003c\/em\u003e to the witchery of \u003cem\u003eThunderbird\u003c\/em\u003e, her poems keep gaining an increasingly robust readership and have influenced an entire generation of younger poets. In \u003cem\u003eROME\u003c\/em\u003e, Lasky finds herself in the arena of eternal longing and heartsick desire, confronting her ghosts and demons and proving she’s “one of the very best poets we’ve got” (Maggie Nelson).","brand":"Liveright Publishing Corporation","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47038276239600,"sku":"9781631491412","price":15.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781631491412_p0.jpg?v=1763672192","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781631491412","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
