{"product_id":"the-look-away-richard-skelton-9781999971809","title":"The Look Away","description":"\u003cp\u003eA wounded man in a fugue state hides out in a deserted north-country shieling, convinced that he is pursued. Over the days and weeks that follow, as no one comes to claim him, his mind turns from his pursuers to the hills themselves, and their other-than-human inhabitants. Gradually he is caught up in a drama that can have only one conclusion.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e After nearly a decade of writing poetry and non-fiction, Richard Skelton has arrived at a form that is most like the music for which he is well-known: the slow accumulation of mood and atmosphere, the repetition of stark phrases, the bleak beauty, the loam and grit. In \u003cem\u003eThe Look Away\u003c\/em\u003e, Skelton has written a powerful, intensely bleak, yet redemptive, novella that redraws mythic lines and repositions humanity in a more complex and ambiguous relationship with the natural world.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Richard Skelton\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1999971809\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781999971809\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Xylem Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/06\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 168\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.40lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.25w x 0.36d","brand":"Richard Skelton","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43979080892671,"sku":"9781999971809","price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_45f9f978-dcfc-4f55-905e-d361b02992ef.jpg?v=1683244079","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-look-away-richard-skelton-9781999971809","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
