{"product_id":"karankawa-iliana-rocha-9780822963844","title":"Karankawa","description":"Winner of the 2014 Donald Hall Prize for Poetry Selected by Joy Harjo Karankawa is a collection that explores some of the ways in which we (re)construct our personal histories. Rich in family narratives, myths, and creation stories, these are poems that investigate passage--dying, coming out, transforming, being born--as well as the gaps that also reside in our stories, for, as Rocha suggests, the opportunity to create myths is provided by great silences. Much like the Karankawa Indians whose history works in omissions, Karankawa reconfigures such spaces, engaging with the burden and freedom of memory in order to rework and recontextualize private and public mythologies. First and last, these are poems that honor our griefs and desires, for they keep alive the very things we cannot possess.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Iliana Rocha\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0822963841\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780822963844\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Pittsburgh Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/28\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 88\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.35lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.70h x 6.00w x 0.30d","brand":"Iliana Rocha","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46172948300031,"sku":"9780822963844","price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_a711ba5a-12b3-4ac9-a89b-a10e9825eb36.jpg?v=1727179551","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/karankawa-iliana-rocha-9780822963844","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
