{"product_id":"reykjavk-requiem-gerur-kristn-9781910345016","title":"Reykjavik Requiem (working title)","description":"This is Gerður Kristný's third collection from Arc and the third of the trilogy which already comprises the highly-acclaimed Bloodhoof and Drápa. In all three poetic sequences, the poet employs the archaic form of the saga to conjure up razor-sharp dark and bewildering images of the fates of women in a world where the boundaries between life and death and what lies beyond are unclear. In this particular sequence, Gerður Kristný gives a voice to a woman whose story was one that society was not ready to hear at the time, a woman who was abused as a child but who committed suicide before her own account of what had taken place was published. At its heart is the very notion of articulation, of how our language and culture determine what stories we can tell and what words we can use.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Gerður Kristný\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1910345016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781910345016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e ARC Publications\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/14\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 104\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.31lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.25d","brand":"Gerður Kristný","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44045462634751,"sku":"9781910345016","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_4306d9f6-6d4b-46cb-a533-c9ae67507097.jpg?v=1684978897","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/reykjavk-requiem-gerur-kristn-9781910345016","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
