{"product_id":"soon-done-with-the-crosses-9781666765571","title":"Soon Done with the Crosses","description":"Two excerpts from spirituals, offered as epigraphs, foreshadow themes in Soon Done with the Crosses. The first song, \"\"One of These Days,\"\" suggests inevitable burdens that all of us must bear at some point, while the second song, \"\"Do Lord,\"\" supposes a glorious reward for those who faithfully endure. The poems in this book form a catalog of varied trials--both historical and contemporary--drawn from art, imaginings, the natural world, and aspects of the human condition, coupled with questions about eternity. Though while the collection begins with pleas for some bright assurance, it concludes in yet another vigil through dark, lonely hours, longing for morning's clarifying light.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Claude Wilkinson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cascade Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/12\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSeries:\u003c\/b\u003e Poiema Poetry\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 100\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.35lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.24d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781666765571","brand":"Cascade Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42439187955849,"sku":"9781666765571","price":10.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0636\/9240\/6921\/files\/img_5a1a6f79-9af7-4dcc-be58-c5dd030f6d6c.jpg?v=1716269288","url":"https:\/\/sonsanddaughtersbooks.com\/products\/soon-done-with-the-crosses-9781666765571","provider":"Sons and Daughters Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
