Difficult then \/ to stand at the mirror and reflect: \/ I am this. This is what I am.\" Some Dance is a meditation on stories, the intersection of stories, of things made up, of things imagined, and of things lived - perhaps. Tricks played by memory, scrambling events from life with fiction, are a constant. Ricardo Sternberg seeks a fixed point from which to understand the world, but finds no resolution save for another poem. Everything is in flux, unstable, and leads to unexpected places: a commune in the 1960s, a drunken doctor who deals in contraband, a palm reader, a classroom visited by Jesus, a dance in a darkened kitchen. A lively collection that turns towards the commonplace, classical, and strange, Some Dance masterfully balances serious thought, big ideas, and good humour through surprising, elegant, and colloquial expressions.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ricardo Sternberg\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e McGill-Queen's University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/13\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSeries:\u003c\/b\u003e Hugh MacLennan Poetry #29\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 90\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.24lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.64h x 5.03w x 0.24d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780773543478","brand":"McGill-Queen's University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45486857322633,"sku":"9780773543478","price":14.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0636\/9240\/6921\/files\/img_8e4f2df8-26df-4967-a8d3-2c7c2907350a.jpg?v=1775543991","url":"https:\/\/sonsanddaughtersbooks.com\/products\/some-dance-volume-29-9780773543478","provider":"Sons and Daughters Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
