To stand beneath tall buildings, among the countless faces of a crowd?

From experiences defined by an urban landscape--a thwarted customer at the door of a shuttered bookstore in Crete, a chance encounter with a might-have-been lover in Copenhagen--to the streets themselves, where \"an alley was a comma in the agony's grammar,\" in David Keplinger's hands startling images collide and mingle like bodies on a busy thoroughfare. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Yet \u003ci\u003eAnother City\u003c\/i\u003e deftly spans not only the physical space of global cities, but more intangible and intimate distances: between birth and death, father and son, past and present, metaphor and reality. In these poems, our entry into the world is when \"the wound, called loneliness, \/ opens,\" and our voyage out of it is through a foreign but not entirely unfamiliar constellations of cities: Cherbourg, Manila, Port-au-Prince. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e A moving, haunting atlas to worlds both interior and exterior.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Milkweed Editions\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/13\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781571314864\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 112\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.35lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.40h x 5.50w x 0.60d","brand":"David Keplinger","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36660150861980,"sku":"9781571314864","price":13.6,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_37e3f23d-6bd3-48cb-9457-97936b78716b.jpg?v=1603896208","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/another-city-poems-9781571314864","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
