Entering his urban vision of off-kilter fingerprint police, helix fireworks, and lockboxes replete with \"unsewn \/ buttons from the shirts of dead men\" (\"The Vault\"), we are invited to witness how \"daylight peels silence \/ off the sides of buildings\" to reveal vampire teeth and arrows (\"Phantasmagoria at Six AM\"), how \"every single body on the street \/ turns to paper\" (\"At This Very Moment\"). Krut dismantles the world around us and in turn remakes it into something dark yet alive, a place seething with desire, where \"A thousand leaves are worth one wish\" (\"This All Starts With You, and This All Ends With You\").\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Robert Krut\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1949933032\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781949933031\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Distribution Partners\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/01\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 68\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.26lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.80h x 5.60w x 0.30d","brand":"Robert Krut","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48486484869375,"sku":"9781949933031","price":16.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_d2e26f4a-a1ca-4fb6-a3f5-2b2464489415.jpg?v=1778055664","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-now-dark-sky-setting-robert-krut-9781949933031","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
