{"product_id":"gloss-rebecca-hazelton-9780299321642","title":"Gloss","description":"The poems of Rebecca Hazelton's contemporary American fantasyland revel in the constructed realities of movie sets and marriage. Poems reveal the negotiations of power and performance behind closed doors, between the sheets, and in contracts and scripts. The collection's three parts act out how we present ourselves through counterfeits, ornaments, and distorted self-portraits. Keen, wry, and playful, Hazelton's poems poke fun at the savagery buzzing underneath life's slicked-back surfaces and crack the veneer on our most brightly jarring cultural constructions. She confronts our need to constantly adjust our masks to appease impossible standards--and our desperate fear of having our true selves be seen and understood.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Rebecca Hazelton\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0299321649\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780299321642\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Wisconsin Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/12\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 104\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.30lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 5.90w x 0.40d","brand":"Rebecca Hazelton","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43946399105279,"sku":"9780299321642","price":14.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_798935ce-19ca-4184-939e-af777dae33ed.jpg?v=1681512923","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/gloss-rebecca-hazelton-9780299321642","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
