Ruth Ellen Kocher's poems envision this body as a union of god and soul that, within our material world, encompasses love and hate, joy and despair. The body is a site of divine presence made mortal, electrified with the resonance of both the infinite and the human. In \u003ci\u003egodhouse\u003c\/i\u003e, we encounter the body as a site where the universe is made personal and celebratory, where the celestial endure the complications of flesh and friction forms between the glorious and the monstrous aspects of personhood. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ruth Ellen Kocher\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1632431165\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781632431165\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Omnidawn\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/30\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 140\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.48lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 5.90w x 0.50d","brand":"Ruth Ellen Kocher","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44080319135999,"sku":"9781632431165","price":22.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_17f9ab40-5ce7-452d-a753-b02c072c1f5b.jpg?v=1685486149","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/godhouse-ruth-ellen-kocher-9781632431165","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
