{"product_id":"9781940224428","title":"Rusting -- Ways We Keep Living","description":"Rusting, like all of David Axelrod's books, is compelling. Axelrod offers these poems \"... as life lessons. I am not just writing poems, I am fostering empathy. Let us share what we have, for better or worse, and make something good of it. I may not be a life coach, but I do wish us all a happier existence and these poems are the closest I can come to a survival guide.\" Axelrod's poems are personal and moving and, as mirrors to ourselves, elicit a number of emotions in the reading. One must agree with the praise given for his works: \"One of the finest and most original American poets now writing. \" X.J. Kennedy; \"Axelrod is a treat.\" The New York Times; \"A best bet.\" Newsday; A summer Best Pick.\" Small Press Review; \"(Poems to) cherish and pass around ... a prize to keep.\" William Stafford.","brand":"Taylor and Seale Publishing, LLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47033596346608,"sku":"9781940224428","price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781940224428_p0.jpg?v=1763667881","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781940224428","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
