{"product_id":"entries-on-light-mimi-khalvati-9781857543292","title":"Entries on Light","description":"Entries on Light, Mimi Khalvati's third book, is a single poem, a series of meditations on light, on what light is and does, how--as it changes--it invents and reinvents the things we see, are and were, how it inscribes our shadows and our feelings. The sea- and sky-scapes of these poems are vivid: dawn, storm, dusk, the pewtery or the bright mid-day. Each demands a different syntax, a distinctive rhythm and rhyme. Mimi Khalvati has always had a well-trained eye; she is also formally among the most resourceful poets writing today, able to close her lyrical moments with resonance and, when necessary, to leave a stanza open to the changes of the weather. If at times we think of Constable in the billowing movement of her fuller stanzas, we also--in short-phrased sections--are put in mind of the flat skies of Hokusai. She is a poet in whose vision east and west join.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Mimi Khalvati\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1857543297\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781857543292\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Carcanet Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/01\/1997\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 80\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback","brand":"Mimi Khalvati","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48486205915391,"sku":"9781857543292","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_dc9e6dbc-0687-42ed-8ec3-a21204eff762.jpg?v=1778054355","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/entries-on-light-mimi-khalvati-9781857543292","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
