{"product_id":"split-daughter-of-eve-catherine-gonick-9781962405164","title":"Split Daughter of Eve","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn poems at turns lyrical and narrative, ironic and yearning, Split Daughter of Eve describes a lifelong attempt to arrive at a sense of soul, self, and worldly identity, from an initial dark mess of imposed meanings. This particular journey from childhood is informed by a split and warring religious inheritance (Jewish\/Catholic) that intersects with incestuous shadings at home. What is sacred becomes hopelessly confused with the profane. Values urgently needed to live appear to have been lost before they could be understood, much less claimed. Questions of who, what, or why to believe, and what to stand for, are explored against a backdrop of places that include California, New York, Nevada, and Minnesota, as well as Poland, Ukraine, Israel, Italy, Spain and Turkey, while touching on history that includes pogroms, McCarthyism, Communists and Catholics, ancient mystics and martyrs, and the war in Gaza. The multiplicity of contradictions may well be unresolvable. Yet, as the poems demonstrate, sending in one's own angel of imagination to wrestle with them can offer a little aid.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Catherine Gonick\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1962405168\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781962405164\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Sheila-Na-Gig Editions\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/15\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 108\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.30lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.22d","brand":"Catherine Gonick","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47136665010431,"sku":"9781962405164","price":16.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_0058721c-8aa3-4619-8982-3950a6465a58.jpg?v=1755024022","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/split-daughter-of-eve-catherine-gonick-9781962405164","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
