{"product_id":"soft-water-charles-scott-9781941196335","title":"Soft Water","description":"In poem after poem in his excellent, often chilling, often precisely beautiful collection, Soft Water, Charles Scott demonstrates he's the kind of writer for whom authenticity is both an event of \"what happened\" and the language that is sought and found to render it. He gets things right. From the outset, his book establishes a quality of truth-telling about Vietnam: \"After everything had settled, it was quiet\/because there were no wounded, \/everyone that was hurt\/was dead.\" That he never raises his voice about sensational moments is part of his authority. And his stateside poems, though informed by his Vietnam experience, can be rich and sensuous and tender. A real talent here. -Stephen Dun\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Charles Scott\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1941196330\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781941196335\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Madhat Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/12\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 116\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.34lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.28d","brand":"Charles Scott","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48486414156031,"sku":"9781941196335","price":21.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_a8982f3d-81b2-44b1-b2da-1b92d2ec117d.jpg?v=1778055359","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/soft-water-charles-scott-9781941196335","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
