{"product_id":"the-school-of-solitude-luis-hern-ndez-9780983322061","title":"The School of Solitude: Collected Poems","description":"Peruvian poet Luis Hern ndez is legendary in his native country. Haunted by addiction and spending periodic reclusion in rehabilitation centers, Hern ndez was exceptionally gifted in his youth, publishing three books of poetry by the time he was twenty-four. He did not publish another book before his untimely death at thirty-six, but he was not silent--he filled notebooks with poems, musical notations, quotes, translations, musings, newspaper clippings, and drawings. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Derived from these notebooks, \u003ci\u003eThe School of Solitude\u003c\/i\u003e is the first book of Hern ndez's poetry in English. The haunting voice of Hern ndez evokes an irrevocably distant past, with the poems contemplating happiness and joy, love and fulfillment, yet always with a sense of sadness, solitude, and dream. Including rare images from Hern ndez's notebooks, as well as several poems never before published in any language, \u003ci\u003eThe School of Solitude\u003c\/i\u003e will be read not only for its powerful poetry and imagery, but also as a means to learn more about this enigmatic Latin American poet and the mystery of his life and work.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Luis Hern疣dez\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0983322066\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780983322061\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Swan Isle Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/15\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 167\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.66lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.13h x 5.06w x 0.34d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e Literary Award - Finalist","brand":"Luis Hern疣dez","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44410423476479,"sku":"9780983322061","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_55442abc-0a52-40cc-b4c5-28d956525d85.jpg?v=1697536165","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-school-of-solitude-luis-hern-ndez-9780983322061","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
