{"product_id":"action-in-the-orchards-fred-schmalz-9781937658984","title":"Action in the Orchards","description":"Action in the Orchards' explores ekphrastic poetry and its possibilities through experiences and encounters, with art and architecture, with friends and lovers, with our own pasts and futures, how they intersect with language, and how language acts as a filter through which our relations to experiences are communicated. Fred Schmalz follows the energy of those exchanges, in hopes of witnessing new opportunities for language. Formally experimental and musical, the poems coalesce through a kaleidoscopic mix of speech fragments, elision, mistranslation, collage, appropriated language, dream transcription, and wordplay.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Fred Schmalz\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1937658988\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781937658984\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Nightboat Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/23\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 144\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.45lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.90h x 5.90w x 0.40d","brand":"Fred Schmalz","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43937632715007,"sku":"9781937658984","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_95bdafe8-64c2-49a2-b4db-ac35d3efe320.jpg?v=1681431178","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/action-in-the-orchards-fred-schmalz-9781937658984","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
