{"product_id":"9781931824613","title":"antisocial patience","description":"\u003cbr\u003ePoetry. California Interest. Jewish Studies. Religious Studies. \"The 18 suites of poems that make up ANTISOCIAL PATIENCE are a kind of diary of days lived in the aftermath of political upheaval, when it's quiet. Solidarity's subsided, the torn-open world of possibilities has shut back down. But something's changed; the poet has found God. There are hymns and psalms and sonnets and syllabics here; canticles and macaronic verse, little ABAB stanzas and Oakland argot with a King James twist. They are sidewalk- poems, working-in-bookstore poems; restricted and devotional, utterly compact and wide-water open. What if Bartleby had had a giant heart? What if Hopkins had fought the cops? Throw your phone away, the poems suggest; cry out your name in the street. Your friends will find you anyway, and you'll remember that you're really here.\"—Chris Nealon","brand":"Roof Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47044063723760,"sku":"9781931824613","price":15.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781931824613_p0.jpg?v=1764127023","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781931824613","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
