{"product_id":"personification-margaret-ronda-9780981859156","title":"Personification","description":"Personification undertakes dreamlike journeys through crumbling architecture and airless interiors, discovering anachronistic and apocalyptic emblems among the commonplace particulars of modern day life. Breaking open in order to reinhabit the language of Puritan allegory and captivity narrative, these poems meditate on the possibility of personhood generated by the constraints of luminous unknowing, a form of captivity in which one is both bound and held rapt. They proceed by way of detour, boredom's indirection, and astonished pauses, endlessly seeking \"the perfect thought \/ we slept frozen inside \/ yet could not see.\" Of Personification, Carl Phillips writes, \"Here is a strange and arresting vision, indeed.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Margaret Ronda\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0981859151\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780981859156\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Saturnalia Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/01\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 80\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.20lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.30h x 5.50w x 0.30d","brand":"Margaret Ronda","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47611018412287,"sku":"9780981859156","price":14.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_c87d25b0-1da7-4d29-8418-14163c84ad2f.jpg?v=1764511175","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/personification-margaret-ronda-9780981859156","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
