{"product_id":"9781771312738","title":"The Whole Elephant","description":"Shortlisted for the 1990 Dorothy Livesay Award for Poetry (BC Book Prizes)  Marlene Cookshaw is a Cheshire cat of a poet whose naturally realized details illuminate a shifting wholeness on the \"singing edge\" between dream and waking. Hers is a quilted language at once covering and revealing our fascinating ordinariness. The long poem \"In The Swim\" subtly captures the desperate and humourous beauty of a seemingly plain life closely observed. Other poems leap with deftness and daring across the open plain of our lives, leaving images so strong, so strange, they verge on myth.","brand":"Brick Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47149999882480,"sku":"9781771312738","price":11.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781771312738_p0.jpg?v=1763707311","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781771312738","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
