{"product_id":"afterimage-9781939574060","title":"Afterimage","description":"Afterimage, by Len Krisak, is a masterfully-crafted collection of poems in which we see the persistence of history into the present - the ancient market under the polish of urban architecture, the thrum of Roman crowds amid present-day Boston. Horace and Ovid exist alongside Jeopardy! and Clark Kent. Whether in a grand, public mode or quietly elegiac and personal, the poems record our contemporary life, often noting the images from such a distant and literary past strikingly alive in the present. From \"the topless towers of Troy\" to \"the trolley's stair step lip,\" Krisak writes with a metrical and formal eloquence. His voice is both learned and colloquial, demonstratating a careful attention to language and its power to move us.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Len Krisak\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Measure Press Inc.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/22\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 86\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.63lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.38d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781939574060","brand":"Measure Press Inc.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46717467918473,"sku":"9781939574060","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0636\/9240\/6921\/files\/img_5fcde0fe-cc64-403f-a895-c8b23ad88a24.jpg?v=1778614757","url":"https:\/\/sonsanddaughtersbooks.com\/products\/afterimage-9781939574060","provider":"Sons and Daughters Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
