{"product_id":"the-echo-of-ice-letting-julie-lemay-9781602233119","title":"The Echo of Ice Letting Go","description":"Rooted in the harsh, yet beautiful landscape of Alaska, this collection of poems is at once comforting and disquieting, permeated with wisdom, darkness, and resilience. Taken together, the poems form a powerful narrative, as Julie Hungiville LeMay relates a personal story of the recurrence of cancer and interweaves it with an account of her son's struggle with addiction. In a world of so much pain, her poems ask, how can we find meaning? The answer, often, is nature: among \"spruce branches that whisper\" and \"the yellow joy \/ of warblers.\" Half-found poems that contain lines from John Muir's essays are arranged throughout the book like touchstones, while other poems invoke the spirit of Wordsworth. LeMay's voice is precise and clear, her lines musical and sonically rich, making this ambitious, wide-ranging book one that readers won't soon forget.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Julie Lemay\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 160223311X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781602233119\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Alaska Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/15\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 112\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 6.10w x 0.30d","brand":"Julie Lemay","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46962650317055,"sku":"9781602233119","price":15.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_802ed4a0-4a69-46fd-826e-d38bfa7b68f1.jpg?v=1750652107","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-echo-of-ice-letting-julie-lemay-9781602233119","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
