{"product_id":"9781894078924","title":"Night Work: The Sawchuk Poems","description":"Winner of the 2008 Winterset Award and the 2009 E.J. Pratt Poetry Prize  Winner of the Kobzar Literary Award 2010  A hockey saga, wrapping the game’s story in the “intense, moody, contradictory” character of Terry Sawchuk, one of its greatest goalies.  In compact, conversational poems that build into a narrative long poem, Night Work: The Sawchuk Poems follows the tragic trajectory of the life and work of Terry Sawchuk, dark driven genius of a goalie who survived twenty tough seasons in an era of inadequate upper-body equipment and no player representation. But no summary touches the searching intensity of Maggs’s poems. They range from meditations on ancient\/modern heroism to dramatic capsules of actual games, in which the mystery of character meets the mystery of transcendent physical performance. Night Work: The Sawchuk Poems is illustrated with photographs mirroring the text, depicting key moments in the career of Terry Sawchuk, his exploits and his agony.","brand":"Brick Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47151247720688,"sku":"9781894078924","price":11.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781894078924_p0.jpg?v=1763609878","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781894078924","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
