{"product_id":"moon-road-ron-smith-9780807132715","title":"Moon Road: Poems, 1986-2005","description":"From poems of memory and family through its extraordinary voyaging sequences \"Via Appia\" and \"To Ithaca,\" Ron Smith's \u003ci\u003eMoon Road\u003c\/i\u003e embodies the experiences and some of the more elusive lessons of marriage, fatherhood, teaching, sports, and travel. Domestic poems give way to poems of pilgrimage and witness, to poems of literary homage and metaphysical questioning. A mind nurtured in the mid-twentieth-century Deep South drifts north and west and finally abroad, and sometimes into visionary, mysterious pasts. With skeptical reverence, the poems hunger for and dramatize a search for immanence and transcendence. Many poems examine the fear of meaninglessness, the griefs of separation and alienation, and the limits as well as the powers of language.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ron Smith\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0807132713\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780807132715\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e LSU Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/01\/2007\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 72\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.29lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.99h x 6.08w x 0.23d","brand":"Ron Smith","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43980568887551,"sku":"9780807132715","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_572011bb-aadc-4d08-bf97-b616938dd0fd.jpg?v=1683250648","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/moon-road-ron-smith-9780807132715","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
