{"product_id":"night-animals-9781946448583","title":"Night Animals","description":"The poems in \u003ci\u003eNight Animals\u003c\/i\u003e, by Yusef Komunyakaa, climb so deeply into the being of various beasts, from cricket to leopard to snowy owl, that we read them with an uncanny shiver of recognition. Without ever fully abandoning his human skin, Komunyakaa inhabits both the outer and inner lives of these creatures. The images are a brilliant match for the poems, each of Rachel Bliss's surreal animals populate a realm somewhere between our two species--birds with teeth, men with antlers, a duck wearing suspenders. Both image and word are dense and dark, intensely focused around a kind of hunger. The poet has been startling us with his rich, disturbing, and important poems for many years. \u003ci\u003eNight Animals\u003c\/i\u003e extends Yusef Komunyakaa's remarkable oeuvre.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Yusef Komunyakaa\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Sarabande Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/02\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSeries:\u003c\/b\u003e Quarternote Chapbook\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 32\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.2lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.80h x 5.80w x 0.20d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781946448583","brand":"Sarabande Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42860069879945,"sku":"9781946448583","price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0636\/9240\/6921\/files\/img_ebcce2c8-24a2-447b-b207-9726fe7acd2e.jpg?v=1722316367","url":"https:\/\/sonsanddaughtersbooks.com\/products\/night-animals-9781946448583","provider":"Sons and Daughters Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
