{"product_id":"girl-running-diana-hope-tegenkamp-9781771872140","title":"Girl Running","description":"This stellar debut collection by M騁is poet Diana Hope Tegenkamp takes us through many worlds and wonders. In Girl running, we find solace and outrage, grief and tenderness, bewilderment and beauty, all \"entangled in hope and dreaming.\" The poet's love of the natural world is both earthy and adamantine, and her passion for literature and art is just as rich a source for her questioning eye. On the edge of Saskatoon, a woman opens a car door and flees. A child runs away from residential school after a beating. A M騁is man's ghost gallops on a ghost horse across the prairies. Henry James' 19th-century heroine, Isabel Archer, runs across a wintery yard. Lana Tisdel drives away from Falls City, Nebraska, after the murder of her transgender boyfriend. After many losses--of a mother known and loved, of a Metis father unknown and imagined--the 'girl' of this collection is running towards and away from mortality. In these poems, disappearances, perpetual flights, river walks, shadowy descents and miraculous returns connect daily living and mortality, current social realities and ancient histories, the surface and the subterranean depths of our complicated lives. Lovers of contemporary Canadian poetry will find that this textured collection rewards reading and rereading.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Diana Hope Tegenkamp\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1771872144\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781771872140\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Thistledown Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/30\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 120\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.40lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.40h x 5.50w x 0.40d","brand":"Diana Hope Tegenkamp","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43982101905663,"sku":"9781771872140","price":24.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_06e37364-e5df-436d-89d7-8281293a27eb.jpg?v=1683259237","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/girl-running-diana-hope-tegenkamp-9781771872140","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
