These poems, characterized by a mix of free and formal verse, depict quiet days at home or in nature, as well as close calls and brushes with death: chronic illness, a house fire, a car crushed by a boulder. In this way, these poems amplify the fragility of the commonplace, a mystery from which we are, amid the noise of our everyday lives, sometimes estranged. Through this exploration, Sanders constructs a precarious balance between alienation and acceptance, striking a note at once recognizable and new.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e David Sanders\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0804012334\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780804012331\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Swallow Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/02\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 70\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.15lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.35h x 5.43w x 0.24d","brand":"David Sanders","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44042524983551,"sku":"9780804012331","price":17.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_d446e838-ca80-4b6a-99a7-3154e3a0d620.jpg?v=1684962035","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/bread-of-the-moment-david-sanders-9780804012331","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
