This yearning for a bone-deep knowing is perfectly suited to Livings's measured lyricism which, while rooted in tradition, can, with equal ease, branch into a more playful mode informed, always, with the twin preoccupations of science and history.' - Catherine Bateson\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e'The context for the human journey, \u003cem\u003eLibation\u003c\/em\u003e seems to say, is the widest one possible: that of deep space and time... On the way, the poet pays respect to the earth's traditional cultures, rites and rituals, rediscovered and affirmed in a direct, experiential and often visceral way, and within specific languages... On a more personal level, several poems confront then stare down death and tragedy, aided by a vital wisdom: namely, the will to life found in all living things, including the many interesting creatures with which we share our lives and little planet...' - John Jenkins\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Earl Livings\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1760416150\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781760416157\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Ginninderra Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/22\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 84\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.20lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.81h x 5.06w x 0.17d","brand":"Earl Livings","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48519312933119,"sku":"9781760416157","price":14.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_a9d7fe49-7443-48e5-92bb-86d723ce6d3b.jpg?v=1778737236","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/libation-earl-livings-9781760416157","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
