{"product_id":"9781644450925","title":"Turn Up the Ocean: Poems","description":"Over the course of his celebrated career, Tony Hoagland ventured fearlessly into the unlit alleys of emotion and experience. The poems in \u003ci\u003eTurn Up the Ocean\u003c\/i\u003e examine with an unflinching eye and mordant humor the reality of living and dying in a time and culture that conspire to erase our inner lives. Hoagland’s signature wit and unparalleled observations take in long-standing injustices, the atrocities of American empire and consumerism, and our ongoing habit of looking away. In these poems, perseverance depends on a gymnastics of skepticism and comedy, a dogged quest for authentic connection, and the consolations of the natural world. \u003ci\u003eTurn Up the Ocean\u003c\/i\u003e is a remarkable and moving collection, a fitting testament to Hoagland’s devotion to the capaciousness and art of poetry.","brand":"Graywolf Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47058220122352,"sku":"9781644450925","price":16.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781644450925_p0.jpg?v=1763688115","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781644450925","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
