{"product_id":"9781939574060","title":"Afterimage","description":"Afterimage, by Len Krisak, is a masterfully-crafted collection of poems in which we see the persistence of history into the present - the ancient market under the polish of urban architecture, the thrum of Roman crowds amid present-day Boston. Horace and Ovid exist alongside Jeopardy! and Clark Kent. Whether in a grand, public mode or quietly elegiac and personal, the poems record our contemporary life, often noting the images from such a distant and literary past strikingly alive in the present. From \"the topless towers of Troy\" to \"the trolley's stair step lip,\" Krisak writes with a metrical and formal eloquence. His voice is both learned and colloquial, demonstratating a careful attention to language and its power to move us.","brand":"Measure Press Inc.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50066733302000,"sku":"9781939574060","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781939574060_p0.jpg?v=1784749409","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781939574060","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
