{"product_id":"more-than-this-david-kirby-9780807169865","title":"More Than This: Poems","description":"\u003ci\u003eMore Than This\u003c\/i\u003e, like David Kirby's previous acclaimed collections, is shot through with the roadhouse fervor of early rock 'n' roll. Yet these rollicking poems also contain an oceanic feeling more akin to the great symphonies of Europe than the two-minute singles of Little Richard and other rock pioneers, as Kirby seeks to startle, to please, to unwind the knots that we get ourselves into and make it possible to being anew. Little goes unnoticed in these poems: death is present, along with love, friendship, food, religious ardor and philosophical skepticism, nights on the town and quiet evenings at home. With \u003ci\u003eMore Than This\u003c\/i\u003e, his twelfth collection, Kirby takes readers back in time and out in space, offering quiet wisdom and a sense of the endless possibilities that art and life give us all.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e David Kirby\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0807169862\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780807169865\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e LSU Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/13\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 128\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.45lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 5.90w x 0.40d","brand":"David Kirby","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43986695127295,"sku":"9780807169865","price":21.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_d143b8ff-4d07-4cf2-a340-06f9a56b8812.jpg?v=1683284794","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/more-than-this-david-kirby-9780807169865","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
