{"product_id":"night-burial-kate-bolton-bonnici-9781885635730","title":"Night Burial","description":"In \u003ci\u003eNight Burial\u003c\/i\u003e, Kate Bolton Bonnici mourns her mother's death from ovarian cancer by tracing the composition, decomposition, and recomposition of the maternal body. Opening with an epigraph from Julia Kristeva's \u003ci\u003eStabat Mater\u003c\/i\u003e, which recognizes the \"abyss that opens up between the body and what had been its inside,\" \u003ci\u003eNight Burial\u003c\/i\u003e moves from breastfeeding to laying sod on a grave, weaving together Alabama pine forests, fairy tales, philosophy, classical and Renaissance literatures, church practices, and hospice care. Through centuries-old and newly imagined poetic forms, \u003ci\u003eNight Burial\u003c\/i\u003e crafts a haunting litany for the dead. These poems ask the essential questions of grief, intertwined with family and place: how do we address the absent beloved and might the poem become its own conjuring whereby the \u003ci\u003eI\u003c\/i\u003e can once again speak to the \u003ci\u003eyou\u003c\/i\u003e? \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Kate Bolton Bonnici\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1885635737\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781885635730\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University Press of Colorado\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/15\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 84\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.30lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.40h x 6.50w x 0.30d","brand":"Kate Bolton Bonnici","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43995913224447,"sku":"9781885635730","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_1afe8f1e-0c17-4a68-8b8f-df9df632a382.jpg?v=1683338601","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/night-burial-kate-bolton-bonnici-9781885635730","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
