While these poems burn with a Plathian fire, they also address and invite in a reader who is, as in \u003ci\u003eJane Eyre\u003c\/i\u003e, a confidant. Steeped in a world of husbands and fathers, patriarchal nations and power structures, \u003ci\u003eReader, I\u003c\/i\u003e traverses bowling alleys and hospital rooms, ancient Troy and public swimming pools, to envision domestic life as a metaphor for civic life, and vice versa.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Corey Van Landingham\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 04\/16\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 100\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.35lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.80h x 5.80w x 0.40d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781956046250","brand":"Sarabande Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42471943274633,"sku":"9781956046250","price":17.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0636\/9240\/6921\/files\/img_0b8c4616-195b-4e12-a0d4-b89fd4fb4e55.jpg?v=1716268380","url":"https:\/\/sonsanddaughtersbooks.com\/products\/reader-i-9781956046250","provider":"Sons and Daughters Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
