{"product_id":"the-address-book-steven-heighton-9780887846984","title":"The Address Book","description":"\u003cp\u003eGovernor General's Award-finalist Steven Heighton employs his signature blend of emotional fierceness and linguistic beauty to tap into \"This whim \/ against what drifts to dark.\" \u003cem\u003eThe Address Book\u003c\/em\u003e is a collection of remarkably well-crafted love letters, letters of loss, and lyrical moments of complaint and redress where music and intelligence are the last guard against wind walls of real grief. Elegiac, angry, tender, and brazenly heart-felt, these poems achieve their effect through total conviction; a complete immersion in the rich palette of human emotions - comfortable and otherwise. The collection's second half includes the author's versions from Western poetry's sustaining giants, including Beaudelaire, Rimbaud, Sappho, Catullus, Homer, and Rilke.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Steven Heighton\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 088784698X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780887846984\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e House of Anansi Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/23\/2004\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 96\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.27lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.68h x 6.06w x 0.27d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eQuill \u0026amp; Quire\u003c\/i\u003e 04\/01\/2004 pg. 39","brand":"Steven Heighton","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46670398587135,"sku":"9780887846984","price":18.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_80cb93b7-dfe9-4be8-a312-8d445d29f59b.jpg?v=1741316940","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-address-book-steven-heighton-9780887846984","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
