{"product_id":"we-were-once-here-michael-mcfee-9780887486203","title":"We Were Once Here","description":"In We Were Once Here, Michael McFee continues to write inventive appreciations of often-overlooked subjects, particularly the people and language of his native Appalachia. This new collection contains thoughtful and playful celebrations of such things as snoring, a wall telephone from the 1960s, yardsticks, the Sunday newspaper, and Fats Waller. It also extends the poet's characteristic lyric keenness into longer work, including a twenty-one-part centerpiece elegy for his niece. The book concludes with, and is framed by, poems that explore the bittersweet enduring joys of \"here.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Michael McFee\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0887486207\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780887486203\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Carnegie-Mellon University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/14\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 88\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.30lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.40h x 5.40w x 0.40d","brand":"Michael McFee","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44057107235071,"sku":"9780887486203","price":15.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_b6a74be2-372a-44e3-b3e0-b316777cf70d.jpg?v=1685045075","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/we-were-once-here-michael-mcfee-9780887486203","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
