{"product_id":"the-school-among-the-ruins-adrienne-rich-9780393327557","title":"The School Among the Ruins: Poems 2000-2004","description":"In this new collection Adrienne Rich confronts dislocations and upheavals in the United States at the beginning of the twenty-first century. The title poem, in a young schoolteacher's voice, evokes the lessons that children (\"Not of course here\") learn amid violence and hatred, \"when the whole town flinches \/ blood on the undersole thickening to glass.\" \"Usonian Journals 2000\" intercuts faces and conversations, building to a dystopic\/utopic vision. Throughout these fierce and musical poems, Rich traces the imprint of a public crisis on individual experience: personal lives bent by collective realities, language itself held to account.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Adrienne Cecile Rich\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0393327558\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780393327557\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e W.
