{"product_id":"love-poems-for-the-socially-sophia-iannuzzi-9780998194943","title":"Love Poems for the Socially Anxious \u0026 Other Maladies","description":"Love Poems for the Socially Anxious\u0026amp; Other Maladies is an unsentimental, conflicted, and ultimately healing look at love from the perspective of a longing for union and the loneliness of being one of a pair. Iannuzzi unflinchingly reports and explores phone calls, absences, awkward moments, miscommunications, making up, and intimacies in clean lean language. And I appreciate her deft control over forms, from short to long, from cryptic lyric to expressive prose poems. She excels in simple, haunting short forms as well: \"to be asked what love is\" comprises five short lines: \"two toothbrushes\/ in a cup\/ beside the sink\/ where there used to be one\/ and no cup\/\" In all, she gives us a whole experience and exploration of love in our time with flashes of luminous images, as in \"fragments\/ of our\/ patchwork souls.\" --Judith Stanton\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Sophia Iannuzzi\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0998194948\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780998194943\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e St. Andrews University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/19\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 38\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.14lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.02h x 5.98w x 0.08d","brand":"Sophia Iannuzzi","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48441625182463,"sku":"9780998194943","price":7.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_de9cedf6-3e3c-4ae6-9a4c-dafe696c5f6c.jpg?v=1777192086","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/love-poems-for-the-socially-sophia-iannuzzi-9780998194943","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
