{"product_id":"two-poems-mario-sampaolesi-9781848612679","title":"Two Poems","description":"The tensions present within the works of Mario Sampaolesi stem from the conflicted relationship with reality that powers poetry itself, an electrical charge created by a constant flitting between engagement, detachment and total abstraction. The 'real' is represented by a mountain or an archipelago in the South Atlantic Ocean; it appears in the snow and animals that are present within the mountain landscape, the geology and sea life of the Malvinas present and the war of Falklands past. But mostly it appears refracted through the distorting consciousnesses of the two men who wander through these terrains, two men so outside of the 'real' that their presence is never more than that of ghosts or destructive trespassers.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Mario Sampaolesi\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1848612672\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781848612679\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Shearsman Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/15\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 132\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.39lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.31d","brand":"Mario Sampaolesi","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48486199689471,"sku":"9781848612679","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_8fd0c5c1-253c-4cde-97c5-6428faa5a50a.jpg?v=1778054312","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/two-poems-mario-sampaolesi-9781848612679","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
