{"product_id":"9781852355913","title":"Life on Earth","description":"Given a choice of worlds, here or beyond, I'd pick this one not once but many times . . .' — from Homage to Goa' The publication of a new book of poems by Derek Mahon is a momentous occasion. Life on Earth collects, and adds to, work which has appeared recently in limited editions. It opens with celebrations of notable exemplars: Coleridge, Chekhov, the novelist Brian Moore. This echo poetry extends to Art Notes' on Hopper, de Staël and others, followed by the eco-poetry of the Homage to Gaia' sequence on environmental themes. A substantial and positive volume distinguished by its light touch, Life on Earth is the work of a supreme artist. Clear, unerring, reverberating: a genuine original.' — W S Merwin","brand":"Gallery Press, The, Ireland","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47175116718320,"sku":"9781852355913","price":9.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781852355913_p0.jpg?v=1763596922","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781852355913","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
