{"product_id":"bright-dead-things","title":"Bright Dead Things","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eA book of bravado and introspection, of feminist swagger and harrowing loss, Bright Dead Things considers how we build our identities out of place and human contact - tracing in intimate detail the ways the speaker's sense of self both shifts and perseveres as she moves from New York City to rural Kentucky, loses a dear parent, ages past the capriciousness of youth and falls in love. In these extraordinary poems Ada Limón's heart becomes a 'huge beating genius machine' striving to embrace and understand the fullness of the present moment. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e'I am beautiful. I am full of love. I am dying,' the poet writes.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBuilding on the legacies of forebears such as Frank O'Hara, Sharon Olds and Mark Doty, Limón's work is consistently generous, accessible, and 'effortlessly lyrical' (New York Times) - though every observed moment feels complexly thought, felt and lived.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ada Limón","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57209327714635,"sku":null,"price":14.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0978\/8755\/1819\/files\/9781472154569.jpg?v=1777899426","url":"https:\/\/desirelinesbookstore.com\/products\/bright-dead-things","provider":"desirelines books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
