Sandiego offers a frank take on contemporary society with verse that is clean, clear and direct, and tantalizing enough to keep us wanting more. Episode after bizarre episode leaves the reader feeling off-balance, hopping on one leg (the good one) like Daniel, but perhaps this is the precise vantage one needs to view our lives more candidly. The starkly lovely, sometimes mysterious, graphical images throughout from photographer Ethan Hahn provide visual texture and figurative subtext to the Raskovich tale. As alarming or reassuring as it may seem, Sandiego's collection reveals that there is a little bit or quite a lot of Daniel in every one of us. -Lana Hechtman Ayers, series editor, author of A New Red\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Lana Hechtman Ayers,Victor David Sandiego\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1936657023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781936657025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Moonpath Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/29\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 54\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.19lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.02h x 5.98w x 0.11d","brand":"Lana Hechtman Ayers","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48442670055679,"sku":"9781936657025","price":10.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_bae369e2-cd98-4d40-b768-9acfa23bd88a.jpg?v=1777198968","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-strange-beautiful-life-lana-hechtman-ayers-9781936657025","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
