{"product_id":"poetics-of-work-nomi-lefebvre-9781945492440","title":"Poetics of Work","description":"\u003cp\u003eA state of emergency has been declared in France. In Lyon, protesters and police clash in the streets. At the unemployment office, there are few job opportunities for poets going around. So the poet reads accounts of life under the Third Reich and in Nazi language, smokes cannabis, walks through the streets, and eats bananas, drawn by an overbearing father into a hilarious and often cynical exploration of the push to be employed and the pull to write. In this Oulipian experiment written without gender markers for its narrator, Noémi Lefebvre presents us with a comic and irreverent reckoning with the rise of nationalism and the hegemony capitalism has on our language, actions, and identities.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e No駑i Lefebvre\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1945492449\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781945492440\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Transit Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/02\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 120\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.30lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.80h x 5.20w x 0.80d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 07\/01\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 10\/26\/2020","brand":"No駑i Lefebvre","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44052042612991,"sku":"9781945492440","price":15.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_5a62ec7b-14fa-4192-ba5b-e106c40a337f.jpg?v=1685016642","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/poetics-of-work-nomi-lefebvre-9781945492440","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
