Some are isolated within a couple, some in a crowd, some have actively chosen to retreat, and others are frantically trying to join forces with something, anything: a lover, a religion, a country, a cause. The poems contain more shadows now, more tones of voice, a fuller anger, and a broader love of life and language. Her imagination is inventive and bizarre; she teaches how extraordinary, dangerous, joyful, and full of surprise everyday life can be.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Carcanet Press, Limited","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47038137630960,"sku":"9781847771643","price":15.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781847771643_p0.jpg?v=1763747862","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781847771643","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
