{"product_id":"storage-issues-suzanne-kay-miller-9781931038768","title":"Storage Issues: Poems 1988-2008","description":"According to Albert Goldbarth, Author, To Be Read in 500 Years and many more poetry collections; two-time winner, National Book Critics Circle award, \"The 'slim striped dirt-colored frog \/ in the first flush of deadnetle, milweed \/ and bindweed unmaking the hollyhock bed\" might be Annie Dillard by way of Gerard Manley Hopins . . . but in fact it's Suzanne Kay Miller, whose poem-document on life lived both in and away from a Mennonite community proves to us over and over how 'You might imagine eternity \/ in local terms, ' the mandate of so much moving poetry, and the lovely presiding spirit of her own.\" Darcy A. Zabel, Professor of English, Friends University, says that \"Pop psychologists call it baggage-the memories, the feelings, both happy and sad, that stick with us, and haunt us, but author Suzanne Miller rightly observes that really, it's storage issues-how much room do you have in a life for happiness, for joy, for love and for the pain that sometimes comes with great love and loss?\" Raylene Hinz-Penner, Author, Searching for Sacred Ground: The Journey of Chief Lawrence Hart, Mennonite, observes, \"'To live as an island in a sea of wickeness, even with God, leaves one dry.' Empathizing here with the thirst of Noah, Miller explores that 'dryness' that is the human plight, especially the generations of woman-pain: mothering, a husband's betrayals, brokenness, like that of the trees. The poet's voice reminds me, when it breaks into praise, of Hopkins in its formality-and sometimes, in its disappointment with the world, as anguished as a Sexton or a Plath.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Suzanne Kay Miller\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1931038767\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781931038768\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Dreamseeker Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/15\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 108\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.32lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.26d","brand":"Suzanne Kay Miller","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48442659864831,"sku":"9781931038768","price":12.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_96e3ddd9-674a-4b4c-a626-5e4fb7ea009f.jpg?v=1777198897","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/storage-issues-suzanne-kay-miller-9781931038768","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
