{"product_id":"antiquity-adisa-andwele-9781900715720","title":"Antiquity","description":"Writing from Barbados, which used to see itself as an English county (Bimshire), Adisa Andwele's collection sets out to uncover and celebrate a past whose links with Africa survive in the folkways of country people, in a history of resistance and cultural creation, and in its own heroes such as Bussa, Nannie Grigg, and Clement Payne. But it is a past in danger of obliteration by the new forces of global\/Americanized culture, and Adisa's poems have an urgency in their rhythms and striking images. This is a Barbadian collection to the core, a celebration of Barbadian nation and language, the rhythms of its music, and its distinctive African-derived culture.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Adisa Andwele\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1900715724\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781900715720\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Peepal Tree Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/01\/2002\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 84\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.24lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.22h x 5.30w x 0.30d","brand":"Adisa Andwele","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48486235668735,"sku":"9781900715720","price":17.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_c85ea94e-f490-4701-ad7f-09606528821b.jpg?v=1778054483","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/antiquity-adisa-andwele-9781900715720","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
