{"product_id":"ossuaries-9780771017346","title":"Ossuaries","description":"Dionne Brand's hypnotic, urgent long poem is about the bones of fading cultures and ideas, about the living museums of spectacle where these bones are found. At the centre of \u003ci\u003eOssuaries\u003c\/i\u003e is the narrative of Yasmine, a woman living an underground life, fleeing from past actions and regrets, in a perpetual state of movement. She leads a solitary clandestine life, crossing borders actual (Algiers, Cuba, Canada), and timeless. Cold-eyed and cynical, she contemplates the periodic crises of the contemporary world. This is a work of deep engagement, sensuality, and ultimate craft from an essential observer of our time and one of the most accomplished poets writing today.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Dionne Brand\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e McClelland \u0026amp; Stewart\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/30\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 128\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.4lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.50w x 0.40d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780771017346","brand":"McClelland \u0026 Stewart","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42713579159689,"sku":"9780771017346","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0636\/9240\/6921\/files\/img_8139914a-e969-40fc-8986-10ac3509013b.jpg?v=1719616275","url":"https:\/\/sonsanddaughtersbooks.com\/products\/ossuaries-9780771017346","provider":"Sons and Daughters Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
