Focusing on their poetic dialogues with such interlocutors as Shakespeare, Seneca, and Byron, respectively--veritable love affairs unfolding in and through poetry--Eskin offers unprecedented readings of Celan's, Brodsky's, and Grünbein's lives and works and discloses the ways in which poetry articulates and remains faithful to the manifold \"truths\"--historical, political, poetic, erotic--determining human existence.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Michael Eskin\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 080475831X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780804758314\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Stanford University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/26\/2008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 252\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.06lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.06h x 6.31w x 0.79d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eReference and Research Bk News\u003c\/i\u003e 08\/01\/2008 pg. 321","brand":"Michael Eskin","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48065147830527,"sku":"9780804758314","price":80.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_6f379392-0ec4-4a4d-8c6b-bb3ecb15c3b7.jpg?v=1768673310","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/poetic-affairs-michael-eskin-9780804758314","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
