{"product_id":"umbra-eric-basso-9781878580726","title":"Umbra: Poems 1976 -1977","description":"After completing his first collection of poems, \u003cem\u003eAccidental Monsters, \u003c\/em\u003e in six months, Eric Basso immediately began \u003cem\u003eUmbra, \u003c\/em\u003e which he finished on the eve of his thirtieth birthday. It is a poet's giant notebook, a laboratory for almost daily experiment with form and image. Many of the poems here read as extended haiku, others record fleeting visions, fluctuating states of mind, dwarfed mysteries of intrigue and sudden loss, brief comedies, or simply moments of heightened perception, all fixed like flies in amber. In this early collection, Basso unabashedly offers the reader poems written without a net. For anyone who wishes to look behind the curtain, \u003cem\u003eUmbra\u003c\/em\u003e is an indispensable document.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Eric Basso\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1878580728\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781878580726\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Asylum Arts\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/12\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 298\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.84lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.67d","brand":"Eric Basso","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44125501817087,"sku":"9781878580726","price":24.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_50beb460-16d0-4306-bd05-0a49c03cf45b.jpg?v=1687442997","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/umbra-eric-basso-9781878580726","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
