{"product_id":"small-hours-9781948579339","title":"Small Hours","description":"\u003cp\u003e\"Ilyse Kusnetz's Small Hours is a 'ministry of dreams' preserving what is 'not visible, but felt, ' the 'ghostly firmament' of the flesh, and in our very bones, the immanent flight concealed within us. Meanwhile the poet keeps watch over 'disassembled countries, ' preserving 'lost narratives, postcards from the dead, ' and the memory of those about whom 'we know almost nothing.' She calls forth monarchs, match girls, and astronomers, offers prescriptions for curing the plague, visits 'Hitler's childhood room preserved' and the cockpit of the Enola Gay, and shows us kamikaze pilots smiling from their last photographs. In this radiant mosaic shot through with chips of historical time, Kusnetz takes flight as do her 'white herons rising into the dark, ' and if the world she surveys is wounded, her poems 'sing into the wound' as a healer would sing. This is poetry of deep and compassionate intelligence.\" -Carolyn Forché\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-12534334\"\u003eIlyse Kusnetz\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Alice James Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/04\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 98\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.34lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.23d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781948579339\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1948579332\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-POE\"\u003ePoetry\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-POE005010\"\u003eAmerican | General\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-POE\"\u003ePoetry\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-POE024000\"\u003eWomen Authors\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-POE\"\u003ePoetry\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-POE023010\"\u003eSubjects \u0026amp; Themes | Death, Grief, Loss\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Alice James Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44528373399789,"sku":"9781948579339","price":15.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/8097\/6621\/products\/img_7adbf9a5-417a-45d6-9193-b019e1fe9220.jpg?v=1701387339","url":"https:\/\/sureshotbooks.com\/products\/small-hours-9781948579339","provider":"SureShot Books Publishing LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
