{"product_id":"emerge-francesca-marais-9780578759371","title":"Emerge","description":"From the crushing comfort of the womb-dark ocean, the poems in Francesca Marais' Emerge rise to the surface and breathe deeply. \"Blood surges through my body, \/ Refusing to gently creep into the shores \/ Of my heart's quiet,\" she says. Untangling the tentacles of family and romance and imagination, the poet carries the reader along on a journey toward self-love and acceptance. Her advice to us? \"Cherish then savour \/ The salt of the pain, \/ Lick your fingers dry.\" Salt of tears, of stinging wounds, of breaking waves-to know the self requires all of these. There is ache here, but also nourishment. Emerge shows us how to stop holding our breath; how to see our own reflection in the ocean's blue eyes.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Francesca Marais\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0578759373\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780578759371\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Francesca Marais\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/17\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 34\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.45lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.25d","brand":"Francesca Marais","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48437935079679,"sku":"9780578759371","price":30.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_5acb3b61-5705-48c5-951d-3572a226ecc7.jpg?v=1777167678","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/emerge-francesca-marais-9780578759371","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
