The volume marks the inevitability of such changes, from danger to safety, from certainty to uncertainty, from joy to sadness and back again. In a single poem that advances through wordplay and association, Cushman meditates on subjects as vast as the earth's fragile ecosystem and as small as the poet's own deflated fantasy of self-importance: \"There aren't any jobs for more Jeremiahs.\" \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eSimultaneously teasing the present and eulogizing what has been lost, Cushman speaks like a Shakespearean jester, freely and foolishly, but with penetrating insight.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Stephen Cushman\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0807156892\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780807156896\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e LSU Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/15\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 88\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.28lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.19d","brand":"Stephen Cushman","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46906601406719,"sku":"9780807156896","price":20.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_98fd0736-0ce6-42e1-8904-3d5dae8e35b0.jpg?v=1748770884","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-red-list-stephen-cushman-9780807156896","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
