{"product_id":"of-love-and-angels-christian-alexander-barkman-9781666768985","title":"Of Love and Angels","description":"Of Love and Angels: Poems for My Fiancee is a love-gift made by the author to celebrate his engagement. It is a collection of thirty love poems that melds romantic, earthly love with the love of God and the divine. The poetry attests to the sacredness of romantic love as a spiritual venture in our increasingly disenchanted world. The use of verse forms such as the heroic couplet and ballad and the application of traditional methods of rhyme and meter is a deliberate attempt to reconnect with the musicality of past poetics--to the lyric traditions of poetry and hymn in which Christianity is so abundantly rich. Free-verse compositions also feature throughout the collection and present an opportunity for contemplation on how both old and new forms alike can express romantic and spiritual sentiment in a way that resonates powerfully with our contemporary ways of life.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Christian Alexander Barkman\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1666768987\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781666768985\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Resource Publications (CA)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/12\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 60\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.48lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.25d","brand":"Christian Alexander Barkman","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44245235761407,"sku":"9781666768985","price":23.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_b9c01a38-453c-4353-909c-906571ca01bf.jpg?v=1693926901","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/of-love-and-angels-christian-alexander-barkman-9781666768985","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
