{"product_id":"overcast-bill-wheatley-9781621378655","title":"Overcast","description":"\"Overcast\" is a collection of verse written about a middle class family in a 20th century industrial American city. Many of the pieces are narrative, centered on the life of the author's sister whose cloistered life was turned upside down by immersion in Japanese culture. Other pieces are inspired by subjects political and personal, abstract and concrete. The tone is wry and irreverent with a kind of linguistic swagger. They are accessible, even fun to read, and are intended for the intelligent, thoughtful reader. Some are also emotional, regarding the puzzle of life, the certainty of loss, and the depth of feeling created by transience.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Bill Wheatley\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1621378659\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781621378655\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Virtualbookworm.com Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/20\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 166\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.51lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.35d","brand":"Bill Wheatley","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44067841442047,"sku":"9781621378655","price":12.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ca679c4d-a661-4f77-8ca4-69737f72e914.jpg?v=1685415654","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/overcast-bill-wheatley-9781621378655","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
