{"product_id":"origin-paul-kiritsis-9780595531684","title":"Origin: Poems from the Crack of Dawn","description":"With the themes of rebirth and discovery of the human spirit, the poems in this anthology concern themselves with the ancient past and represent various stages of evolution that pertain to both individual and cosmic existence.\u003cp\u003e Paul Kiritsis, author of the award-winning book Hermetica: Myths, Legends, Poems returns with this collection of work that unites to celebrate the wheel of life that is eternal and ever changing and to denote the passage of love. His poems demonstrate sensitivity and a complexity of meaning. In \"The Anatomy of melancholia\" he writes: Everything that \/ The skin of habit \/ Has come to know- \/ Has come to love- \/ Has been poisoned \/ \/ By the timely arrow; \/ And like the earthly serpent, \/ I must shed that part of me, \/ And emerge naked \/ Like a newborn infant, \/ Ready to be recognized by fate.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Focusing on the directions of east, west, north, and south, the themes revolve around a return to the crack of dawn-the dawn of both life and creation. It is the journey of a lifetime-perhaps many lifetimes.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Paul Kiritsis\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0595531687\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780595531684\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e iUniverse\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/17\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 140\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.41lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.33d\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Paul Kiritsis","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48435576537343,"sku":"9780595531684","price":11.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_a42f5cac-567b-4213-9077-1b3cc36f6977.jpg?v=1777151300","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/origin-paul-kiritsis-9780595531684","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
