{"product_id":"sunset-at-the-hotel-mira-herb-guggenheim-9798310540354","title":"Sunset at the Hotel Mira Mar: New and Selected Poems","description":"\u003ci\u003e\u003cb\u003eSunset at the Hotel Mira Mar\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e contains 28 pitch perfect poems--some clever, some witty, and all blazingly incisive--told from the point of view of the author's avatar Pete Sussman. When read in its entirety, \u003ci\u003e\u003cb\u003eSunset at the Hotel Mira Mar\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e maps out a life full of ups and downs, highs and lows, tracing Sussman's development from the innocence of early childhood through the disappointments and disillusionments of late middle age and culminating in complex meditations on death and dying. As the book unfolds, Guggenheim displays an exuberant mastery of fixed forms--including sonnets, sestinas, and villanelles--and an equally dazzling command of free verse. Guggenheim's poetry is noteworthy for its clarity and accessibility. This is a book that both poets and non-poets will treasure and return to again and again. Pulitzer Prize winning poet Henry Taylor writes: \"Herb Guggenheim's poems display an intelligent versatility that I have admired for almost forty years.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Herb Guggenheim\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798310540354\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Independently Published\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/01\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 90\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 0.22d","brand":"Herb Guggenheim","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48851137003775,"sku":"9798310540354","price":9.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/sunset-at-the-hotel-mira-herb-guggenheim-9798310540354","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
