{"product_id":"nettles-luisa-futoransky-9781848614642","title":"Nettles","description":"Luisa Futoransky is a poet of lived experience above all, though not hers alone; other voices inhabit the work, whether of friends, lovers, fellow travellers (people she met or figures from history and literature). Like her fiction, the poetry employs a direct language rooted in anecdote and reflection, while sometimes delighting in playful experimentalism. Hers are mosaic narratives, made of pieces, fragments. Something else to notice in Nettles is her flair for the theatrical, especially acute when she writes in shorter forms. Surely her studies of opera helped to hone her instinct for the dramatic gesture. But to think that we start in Rome with this book only to end up in Ohio. That is some sense of humour.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Luisa Futoransky\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1848614640\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781848614642\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Shearsman Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/04\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 132\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.45lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.31d","brand":"Luisa Futoransky","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48437112701183,"sku":"9781848614642","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_571d07a0-f608-41b8-b7a7-1848118c7ab2.jpg?v=1777159947","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/nettles-luisa-futoransky-9781848614642","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
