Through varying styles, voices, and layouts, these poems move collectively with a sonic force, the \"pure acoustics of declaratives,\" through \"a night that begins \/ with our falling asleep, the wet paragraph that he aspirates,\" with a visionary amalgam of phenomenon and symbol. From long-lined, romantic odes to tight, pictorial meditations akin to classical Asian poetry--from the jocular to the reposed to the amorous to the despondent--these are poems that are never satisfied, that relish the \"sweet chorea of the longest day.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ryo Yamaguchi\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1934819417\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781934819418\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Noemi Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/01\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 108\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.40lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 6.70h x 7.30w x 0.40d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/07\/2015","brand":"Ryo Yamaguchi","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48486382141695,"sku":"9781934819418","price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_f528387f-70a1-402b-82c5-2e3ba51d60ef.jpg?v=1778055185","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-refusal-of-suitors-ryo-yamaguchi-9781934819418","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
