{"product_id":"song-of-the-selkie-jane-beal-9781951547004","title":"Song of the Selkie","description":"\u003cp\u003eEnter the wondrous world of the Selkie.\u003cbr\u003e According to Celtic legend, a selkie is a seal underwater and a woman on land. Sometimes she emerges from the ocean, shedding her white selkie-coat to dance on the sand in moonlight. In the liminal space of the shore, she is vulnerable to capture by a man, and she may become a man's wife and the mother of children. In \u003cem\u003eSong of the Selkie\u003c\/em\u003e, the Selkie voices her experience of being caught between two worlds: one of the sea, of freedom, and the other of marriage and motherhood. Other voices join in: a Lighthouse-Keeper, the spirit of Ruth, and even a baby. Through these poems, readers can enjoy the extraordinary magic of selkie stories, and--through their retelling--gain insight into experiences of love and loss, the fears and choices experienced by women, and of finding hope in the future.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jane Beal\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1951547004\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781951547004\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Aubade Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/04\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 88\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.25lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.18d","brand":"Jane Beal","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43943129055487,"sku":"9781951547004","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_977c0883-3592-4578-a63e-9df4f1896894.jpg?v=1681496371","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/song-of-the-selkie-jane-beal-9781951547004","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
