These poems let readers in on a Midwestern childhood with horses, a woman's life in two generations, the interior monologue of a middle-aged person with chronic illness. They're heartbroken, angry, self-deprecating. Magic peeks into the ordinary world from the distant past and the inevitable future. What happened and what's imagined exist side by side. What do you long for? What makes you suffer? What gives you solace? You know what it's like, this life here on earth.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Katherine Riegel\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1962405737\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781962405737\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Sheila-Na-Gig Editions\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/30\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 86\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.24lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.21d","brand":"Katherine Riegel","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48659844923647,"sku":"9781962405737","price":16.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_0b6f05a5-60db-4ee2-a8dc-da675177cb82.jpg?v=1781203611","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/what-life-is-like-here-katherine-riegel-9781962405737","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
