{"product_id":"for-the-mountain-laurel-poems-9780820337999","title":"For the Mountain Laurel: Poems","description":"In his second collection, Casteen moves inward from the physical labor and vernacular culture that shaped his first book, \u003ci\u003eFree Union\u003c\/i\u003e, yet continues to focus on landscape and human relationships. With poems arranged in the order in which they were completed (which in large part reflects the order in which they were first written), Casteen presents a poetic record of the experiences of solitude, marriage, fatherhood, loss, and recovery. The Carolina chickadee can be heard in this work, but so can Emmylou Harris singing with Gram Parsons; these poems dwell in the music of language, the hard truths of those who are no longer young, and the pleasures of the reflective life.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e John Casteen\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Georgia Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/01\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSeries:\u003c\/b\u003e VQR Poetry\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 80\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.26lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.30h x 5.40w x 0.40d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780820337999","brand":"University of Georgia Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42713679331465,"sku":"9780820337999","price":20.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0636\/9240\/6921\/files\/img_eea00d17-8427-4834-8a5e-85c583bdb910.jpg?v=1719619706","url":"https:\/\/sonsanddaughtersbooks.com\/products\/for-the-mountain-laurel-poems-9780820337999","provider":"Sons and Daughters Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
