{"product_id":"exclusions-noah-falck-9781946482334","title":"Exclusions","description":"What happens when a central part of life as we know it does not exist? Noah Falck's latest collection answers this question in a playfully gloomy way that reveals the strange edges of our reality. Anyone who has experienced that rug-pulling sensation of change, of strangeness, will relate to Noah Falk's Exclusions. Each lyric poem \"excludes\" a common subject, including topics such as fiction, modern technology, answers, government, and romance. By setting these subjects against a backdrop of obscurity and strangeness, Falck skillfully keeps readers invested and off-balance. Exclusions brings readers into a world where \"the wind is nothing more than a brilliant collection of sighs\" and \"the sun flattens into a sort of messy bruise over the lake.\" Even excluding many of the things we take for granted, Falck's lyric poetry includes so much: death, smoke, shadows, sadness, history. This collection will leave readers with a changed perspective on what is necessary, and how to deal with immense change. A 2020 Believer Book Awards Finalist, Exclusions has been praised for its ability to \"[keep readers] off balance, stumbling forward, and absolutely alive with both the inventive possibilities of lyric poetry and that rare experience of watching the genre redefine itself in a pair of this art's most capable hands.\" This is a genre-defining book of poetry that allows us to look into the past, present, and future to understand \"the foundations of sadness beginning with the needs of children.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Noah Falck\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1946482331\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781946482334\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Tupelo Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/01\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 70\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.25lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.17d","brand":"Noah Falck","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43990820684031,"sku":"9781946482334","price":17.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_617e1831-8090-454e-8464-744f23bfe66f.jpg?v=1683306878","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/exclusions-noah-falck-9781946482334","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
