Combining the grit, wit, and invention of \u003ci\u003eGo Now\u003c\/i\u003e with the charged lyricism and emotional implosiveness of his groundbreaking music, \u003ci\u003eGodlike\u003c\/i\u003e is brillant in form as well as dazzling in its heartwrenching tale of one whose values in life are the values of poetry. Set largely in the early '70s, but structured as a middle-aged poet's 1997 notebooks and drafts for a memoir-novel, the book recounts the story of a young man's affair with a remarkable teenage poet. \u003ci\u003eGodlike\u003c\/i\u003e is a novel of compelling originality and trascendent beauty.\\\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Akashic Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47060849754352,"sku":"9781888451771","price":14.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781888451771_p0.jpg?v=1763606637","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781888451771","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
