{"product_id":"bamboophobia-ko-ko-thett-9781938890857","title":"Bamboophobia: Bilingual in Burmese and English","description":"Ko ko thett's poems -- described by John Ashbery as \"brilliantly off-kilter\" -- bring oddball lists, linguistic inventiveness, and sardonic humor to the brutal contradictions of life and history in and outside of his native Burma. In some poems he muses on chairs or metaphors or potatoes, while elsewhere, and often with the same, dispassionate tone, he turns his gaze on a strangulating bureaucracy or the horrific treatment of prisoners. Thett writes in Burmese and in English. In this second volume to appear in English, most are English originals but thirteen will be presented bilingually on facing pages.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ko Ko Thett\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 193889085X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781938890857\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Zephyr Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/04\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 104\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.30lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.80h x 5.90w x 0.40d","brand":"Ko Ko Thett","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44045507723519,"sku":"9781938890857","price":16.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_f20d4dff-499a-4706-babf-03e65adaea15.jpg?v=1684979168","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/bamboophobia-ko-ko-thett-9781938890857","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
