{"product_id":"the-air-in-the-air-brandon-rushton-9781946482754","title":"The Air in the Air Behind It","description":"'With an eye roving like a documentary camera, Brandon Rushton delivers a post-wonder diorama of the contemporary non-urban United States in which the vaunted American lawn is artificial; the food is full of chemicals; and \"what haven't we \/ homogenized.\" The freedoms of childhood and adolescence are figured here as a kind of lost, damaged paradise before everyone erases themselves into their adult roles: the contractor, the customer, the detective, the pilot, the bank teller, the embezzler, the broker, the milkshake maker. Rushton's often interweaving lines serve as a formal objective correlative for our interwoven state in this world, which is composed of both the given and the made; the question of why on earth we have chosen what we have made is quietly fuming in every poem. \"Honestly, the people \/ had hoped for more space \/ to feel spectacular.\" The news about that spectacular feeling isn't good, but knowing Rushton is out there watching, giving a damn, and writing his beautiful poems is reason for hope.'\u003cbr\u003e -Donna Stonecipher\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Brandon Rushton\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1946482757\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781946482754\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Tupelo Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/01\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 114\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.40lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.28d","brand":"Brandon Rushton","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44069206163711,"sku":"9781946482754","price":21.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_cf960ad9-e886-4049-bc62-d13c0ffe0155.jpg?v=1685423412","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-air-in-the-air-brandon-rushton-9781946482754","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
