What Howard can accomplish with language strikes us as electric, a kind of alchemy of perception and catastrophe, fidelity and apocalypse. The waters of Northern Ontario shield country are the toxic origin and an image of potential. A subject, a woman, a consumer, a polluter; an erotic force, a confused brilliance, a very necessary form of urgency - all are loosely tethered together and made somehow to resonate with our own devotions and fears; made \"to be small and dreaming parallel \/ to ceremony and decay.\" Liz Howard is what contemporary poetry needs right now.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Liz Howard\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0771038364\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780771038365\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e McClelland \u0026amp; Stewart\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/14\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 112\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.25lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.10h x 5.40w x 0.40d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e Governor General's Literary Awards - Finalist\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 03\/14\/2016","brand":"Liz Howard","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43926006169855,"sku":"9780771038365","price":18.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_f0ead6ff-d00a-4da2-8e2f-5e60d2cfaddb.jpg?v=1681080644","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/infinite-citizen-of-the-shaking-liz-howard-9780771038365","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
