{"product_id":"the-bird-you-are-lisa-dart-9798987135945","title":"The Bird You Are","description":"\u003cp\u003e\"I'd like to be a painter,\" writes Lisa Dart in these brief, stunning portraits. Each prose-poem is addressed, epistle-like, to her mother, as though the once strikingly beautiful red-head, now diminished by illness, loss, and age, into a white-haired rarely lucid woman, might explain the inexplicable truths of their entwined and tragic history. A train's evening-lit passing, sheepskin ankle boots with snow melting on their tread, the pulse of an emergency room heart monitor- this lyrical and searing language paints a moving picture of the painful but ultimately loving relationship at the fluttering heart of this collection.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Lisa Dart\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798987135945\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Shangana Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/09\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 62\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.17lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.16d","brand":"Lisa Dart","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47305728327935,"sku":"9798987135945","price":15.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_8f8c125f-f505-4a37-9294-e8caf4c375d1.jpg?v=1758831632","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-bird-you-are-lisa-dart-9798987135945","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
