The volume speaks to and questions the ancient concept of the soul and its contemporary manifestations, including the damaged soul, the American soul, and the blind, gagged soul of history.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMelissa Kwasny does not define the soul in traditional religious terms, but in a shamanic, perhaps ecological sense, as the part of being that continues its existence after death. The poems in \"Another Letter to the Soul\" point inward, addressing the human soul directly, while the individual lined poems search outward, sensing the soul in the plants, animals, rocks, waters, and winds that surround us.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Melissa Kwasny\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0295742445\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780295742441\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Washington Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/02\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 96\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.60lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.20h x 6.30w x 0.50d","brand":"Melissa Kwasny","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43992913871103,"sku":"9780295742441","price":24.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_8def4f6c-6c6c-475a-9657-0a7b2546ba19.jpg?v=1683321504","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/where-outside-the-body-is-melissa-kwasny-9780295742441","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
