Certain poems speak from his experiences as a third-generation Japanese American and his family's struggles to prove their \"Americanness.\" Others speak from the intersections of our multiracial society--an Asian teenager in love with a Somali Muslim girl, an apostrophe to Richard Pryor, poems about a Palestinian American friend, Abu Ghraib, the hapa sculptor Isamu Noguchi. The result is a sustained multifoliate poetry, bursting with elegance, heartache, and truth.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e David Mura\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0810152371\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780810152373\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Triquarterly Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/31\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 88\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.50lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.40h x 6.10w x 0.60d","brand":"David Mura","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47202174566655,"sku":"9780810152373","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_d23ae09e-082e-464c-b51d-329d616e594a.jpg?v=1756819844","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-last-incantations-david-mura-9780810152373","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
