So began her passage through grief, self-reckoning, and graduate school in Providence, Rhode Island, where the poetics she studied (and sometimes repudiated) became integral to her gradual reconstruction of wholeness. An assemblage of \"evidence\" recovered from emails about paranormal encounters sent and received by Jeff (greyallover@yahoo.com), junk mail from false prophets, an annotated excerpt from Laura (Riding) Jackson's \"The Serious Angels: A True Story,\" and transcripts of Actis' dreams, conversations, and messages to the dead, \u003ci\u003eGrey All Over \u003c\/i\u003enot only celebrates a rare, close, complicated father-daughter bond, it also boldly expands the empathetic and critical capacities of poetry itself. In pulling us outside the comfort zones of received aesthetics and social norms, Actis asks us to embrace with whole seriousness \"the pragmatics of intuition\" in all the ways we read, live, and love.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Andrea Actis\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1771315393\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781771315395\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Brick Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/01\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 172\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.70lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.60h x 5.80w x 0.40d","brand":"Andrea Actis","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43995938095359,"sku":"9781771315395","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_2fe03e83-06e7-4bfd-a241-58b85afa80ca.jpg?v=1683338747","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/grey-all-over-andrea-actis-9781771315395","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
