{"product_id":"thirst-michael-glover-9781915045508","title":"Thirst: - a collection of poetry","description":"\u003cp\u003eMichael Glover's abundant ninth collection of poetry finds him adopting various guises in a range of places, mental and physical. In Ireland, he squares up to a rabble of indolently imperious sheep, those 'ragged kings and queens' of a sequence of poems called Achill Soundings, all written in a cottage once owned by the Nobel-Prize-winning German novelist Heinrich Böll. In Dear Bill, a sequence part written in Andalucia, he pays homage to New Jersey poet and paediatrician William Carlos Williams. In other sequences, he makes word-shapes from the odd minimalist music of the 20th century Austrian composer Anton Webern, explores the testy to-ings and fro-ings of human relationships in poems addressed to the mysterious Violet, and pays sombre tribute to a girl who died far, far too young.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Michael Glover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1915045509\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781915045508\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e 1889 Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/17\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 214\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.90lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.58d","brand":"Michael Glover","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47612094152959,"sku":"9781915045508","price":22.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_8bc26e5f-929e-4fe7-b16e-b32dc931d787.jpg?v=1764518143","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/thirst-michael-glover-9781915045508","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
