And, for those whose cry is “brevity forever,” the micro–poems Priest collects are numerous and brilliant. \u003cem\u003ePreviously Feared Darkness\u003c\/em\u003e consorts with forms and subject matter to present the work of a master getting deep and nasty and hilarious with the best of them.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ECW Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47157239611632,"sku":"9781770904484","price":13.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781770904484_p0.jpg?v=1763707230","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781770904484","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
