{"product_id":"late-self-portraits-mary-morris-9781611864229","title":"Late Self-Portraits","description":"A compelling collection of poems, \u003ci\u003eLate Self-Portraits\u003c\/i\u003e conveys an intimate description of lives through a collage of portraits and affliction. Weaving history and the sacred, both intimate and worldly, one encounters a blind Jorge Luis Borges with his mother, a glass confessional in the of Notre Dame Cathedral, Frida Kahlo in Mexico, ghosts, a neurosurgeon's prognosis, and Marie Laveau in New Orleans. Whether in a field with Joan of Arc, encountering the artist Jean-Michel Basquiat, or having dinner with Hades, these are haunting poems of loss and unearthing, equally bold, personal, and tender. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e From \"\u003ci\u003eDinner with Hades\u003c\/i\u003e\" \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e He shows me a birthday cake, candled. My name is written in pomegranate \u003cbr\u003e seeds. It's like vertigo. Just before he seeks to devour, he halts to birdsong-- \u003cbr\u003e sound of goldfinch, bluebird, hawk, lilting of sparrows. Of whippoorwill \u003cbr\u003e and dove. Wings flap, so many wings, a cool breeze as leaves unfurl into a \u003cbr\u003e once forgotten green and I am back on earth, held in my mother's arms.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Mary Morris\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1611864224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781611864229\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Wheelbarrow Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/01\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 88\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.25lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.80h x 5.90w x 0.30d","brand":"Mary Morris","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44042922688767,"sku":"9781611864229","price":15.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_5692e02f-14da-4fca-b80b-892b9b80ca68.jpg?v=1684964291","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/late-self-portraits-mary-morris-9781611864229","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
