The intimate particulars of a shared life are seen from a great height-and then there's the underlife of the bunker: endurance, holding on, life as uncompromising reality. This new work, possessed by the unique devil-may-care intensity of someone writing at the end of her nerves, makes \u003ci\u003eFigures in a Landscape\u003c\/i\u003e feel radiant, visionary, and exhilarating, rather than elegiac. Mazur's masterly fusion of abstraction with the facts of a life creates a coming to terms with what Yeats called \"the aboriginal ice.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Gail Mazur\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0226514412\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780226514413\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Chicago Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/15\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 96\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.30lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.30h x 5.40w x 0.40d","brand":"Gail Mazur","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44119457169663,"sku":"9780226514413","price":22.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_144c3a5f-d12c-4f81-9710-252a2b958d9e.jpg?v=1687409459","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/figures-in-a-landscape-gail-mazur-9780226514413","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
