{"product_id":"ruining-the-new-road-william-matthews-9780984192854","title":"Ruining the New Road","description":"The debut collection by the legendary William Matthews, in its entirety for the first time since 1970. Careening between the bleak and utterly buoyant, the poems in Ruining the New Road offer a startling open-mouthed, and openhearted honesty that is rare and exhilarating. Fierce in its recognition of both beauty and the painful, yet tender truths of the universe, these poems remind us that Matthews is a genuine master at laying bare the complicated spectrum of the human condition. Here is a book where, as Matthews says, \"Everywhere life is ludicrous\/ but absolutely crucial.\" - Ada Lim n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e William Matthews\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0984192859\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780984192854\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cooper Dillon Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/04\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 76\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.24lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.18d","brand":"William Matthews","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44213002764543,"sku":"9780984192854","price":14.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_af9d7c94-7105-414f-98af-9ec370b588a0.jpg?v=1692111498","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/ruining-the-new-road-william-matthews-9780984192854","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
