{"product_id":"the-pages-of-day-and-adonis-9780810160811","title":"The Pages of Day and Night","description":"Calling poetry a \"question that begets another question,\" Adonis sets into motion this stream of unending inquiry with difficult questions about exile, identity, language, politics, and religion. Repeatedly mentioned as a possible Nobel laureate, Adonis is a leading figure in twentieth-century Arabic poetry. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eRestless and relentless, Adonis explores the pain and otherness of exile, a state so complete that absence replaces identity and becomes the exile's only presence. Exile can take many forms for the Arabic poet, who must practice his craft as an outsider, separated not only from the nation of his birth but from his own language; in the present as in the past, that exile can mean censorship, banishment, or death. Through these poems, Adonis gives an exquisite voice to the silence of absence.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Adonis\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0810160811\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780810160811\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Marlboro Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/25\/2000\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 108\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.47lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.06w x 0.39d","brand":"Adonis","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43926329753855,"sku":"9780810160811","price":15.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_3592a5f1-67c6-4338-a69e-6736487fbe55.jpg?v=1681082468","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-pages-of-day-and-adonis-9780810160811","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
