{"product_id":"homunculus-james-womack-9781784109912","title":"Homunculus","description":"\u003ci\u003eHomunculus \u003c\/i\u003eis a long poem from award-winning poet and translator James Womack, based around the Elegies of the Roman poet Maximian. The last of the Roman poets, Maximian wrote in the sixth century, after the fall of the Western Roman Empire; critics have called his Elegies 'one of the strangest documents of the human mind', and W.H. Auden singled him out as a 'really remarkable poet'. Womack's versioning of the Elegies shows how this harsh poem of sex and old age can speak to our own contemporary, collapsing world.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e James Womack\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1784109916\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781784109912\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Carcanet Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/26\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 88\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.75lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.30h x 5.10w x 0.30d","brand":"James Womack","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43989040791807,"sku":"9781784109912","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_5239088f-08ad-4763-b6b0-10cc3b485e91.jpg?v=1683297514","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/homunculus-james-womack-9781784109912","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
