The poems in \u003ci\u003eTurn Up the Ocean\u003c\/i\u003e examine with an unflinching eye and mordant humor the reality of living and dying in a time and culture that conspire to erase our inner lives. Hoagland's signature wit and unparalleled observations take in long-standing injustices, the atrocities of American empire and consumerism, and our ongoing habit of looking away. In these poems, perseverance depends on a gymnastics of skepticism and comedy, a dogged quest for authentic connection, and the consolations of the natural world. \u003ci\u003eTurn Up the Ocean\u003c\/i\u003e is a remarkable and moving collection, a fitting testament to Hoagland's devotion to the capaciousness and art of poetry.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-11994439\"\u003eTony Hoagland\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Graywolf Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/12\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 80\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.35lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.96h x 6.04w x 0.29d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781644450925\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1644450925\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\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTony Hoagland \u003c\/b\u003e(1953-2018) was the award-winning author of seven books of poetry, including \u003ci\u003ePriest Turned Therapist Treats Fear of God \u003c\/i\u003eand \u003ci\u003eWhat Narcissism Means to Me\u003c\/i\u003e, and four books about poetry, including \u003ci\u003eTwenty Poems That Could Save America\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Graywolf Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44477833412845,"sku":"9781644450925","price":17.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/8097\/6621\/files\/img_1c5522ae-ccef-4b7d-8a45-4ebf70fdd9e6.jpg?v=1747502510","url":"https:\/\/sureshotbooks.com\/products\/turn-up-the-ocean-poems-9781644450925","provider":"SureShot Books Publishing LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
