Other poems take on the cost of not loving fully, or are written from bewilderment at the accumulation of losses and at the mercilessness of having, as one ages, to rule things out. There are elegies for friends, and a group of devotional poems. \u003ci\u003eThe Nightfields\u003c\/i\u003e closes with thirty-one metaphysical poems inspired by the artist James Turrell's Roden Crater, an extinct volcano in Arizona that Turrell has been transforming into an observatory for the perception of time. The sequence unfolds as a series of revelations that begin in psychic fear and move gradually toward the possibility of infinitude and connection.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Joanna Klink\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0143135392\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780143135395\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Penguin Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/07\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 112\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.50lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 5.90w x 0.40d","brand":"Joanna Klink","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45460432257279,"sku":"9780143135395","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_040a025b-9e91-4668-b92a-1d0552297d5e.jpg?v=1715640404","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-nightfields-joanna-klink-9780143135395","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
