{"product_id":"9781932195774","title":"The Us: Poems","description":"\u003cbr\u003ePoetry. THE US, Joan Houlihan's tantalizing third book of poetry, is a poetic sequence spoken in the collective voice of nomadic hunter-gatherers. Incompatible with a stronger, more advanced culture (\"Thems\"), the Us must live outside civilization in order to be free and fully alive. Practical and canny, the Us are also possessed by a sense of awe expressed in superstition and ritual. With echoes of classical mythology, age-old legends, and resilient allegory, this is an absorbing and altogether unique book of poetry. Houlihan's language is ancient in sound and texture yet entirely modern in impact.","brand":"Tupelo Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50097396842736,"sku":"9781932195774","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781932195774","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
