{"product_id":"essentially-richard-terrill-9781737405139","title":"Essentially: Essays","description":"\"\"Here's the thing,\" Richard Terrill writes. \"There's always the thing, isn't there, and most often, not just one?\" Terrill, an award-winning poet and memoirist, asks through this series of wide-ranging, funny, and sometimes gut-punchingly vulnerable essays, what \"is\" essential? Maybe trout fishing, the music of Bill Evans, or the whys of dog ownership. Maybe Yasujiro Ozu's Tokyo Story, We Chat, a musician's early hearing loss, and spying on the neighbors. Or maybe the coming apocalypse, almost getting lost in the woods, trespassing, town clean-up days, and the reason Miles Davis never listened to his own recordings. At times self-effacing and funny, at times outspoken and provocative, Terrill fixes a clear eye on the contradictions in our present moment. \"We're at that point in a journey where you know where you're going, but you don't know where you are,\" he writes. \"The destination should come anytime now.\"\"--\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Richard Terrill\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 173740513X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781737405139\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Holy Cow Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/12\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 187\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.70lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 6.00w x 0.60d","brand":"Richard Terrill","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44069175001343,"sku":"9781737405139","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_79e507c9-a784-45e8-beb1-9ae5ec7e9c02.jpg?v=1685423232","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/essentially-richard-terrill-9781737405139","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
