{"product_id":"one-hundred-visions-of-war-julien-vocance-9781951319373","title":"One Hundred Visions of War","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe \"One Hundred Visions of War\" of Julien Vocance (1878-1954) comprise some of the first haiku written in the West. Where classical Japanese haiku traditionally speaks of the beauty of Nature, Vocance uses the form to a very different purpose, depicting the horror and brutality of armed conflict, as seen from the trenches during the First World War. Readers get a ground-level view of unimaginable slaughter. The value of Vocance's poetry lies in its witness to the experience of the human being caught up in a battle which, as Wendell Berry put it, \"the machines won.\" Only imagine: an obscure soldier-poet pits his human art against overwhelming military technology, and his art survives.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Julien Vocance\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1951319370\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781951319373\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Wiseblood Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/07\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 122\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.28lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.00w x 0.26d","brand":"Julien Vocance","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44074629857535,"sku":"9781951319373","price":12.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_1636a53b-85d0-4da5-9f8e-e1c6ddf9545d.jpg?v=1685454862","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/one-hundred-visions-of-war-julien-vocance-9781951319373","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
