As Guns \u0026amp; Roses once sang every rose has its thorn. In this stunning new book, Pattie Palmer-Baker delves deep into these forces with a narrative and lyric force of her own. The poems here are generous, vulnerable, grown-up, and a joy to read. Palmer-Baker is a poet of witness, and this book is a balm for any prick of a thorn you may have suffered in your life.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e-Matthew Dickman, author of \u003cem\u003eHusbandry\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"There's something elemental about this collection and its concerns woven through with the colors of mountains and motels. Here's a reckoning with the past told in sparkling imagery, always heartfelt yet never sentimental, 'My husband writes me love notes\/on the shells of hardboiled eggs.' Pattie Palmer-Baker plays with space, reflecting the ways in which memory can be fractured and re-made on the page so as to create an alchemy which makes this collection one that remains in the mind long after the first reading.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e-Samantha Wynne-Rhydderch, author of \u003cem\u003eBanjo\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Moonpath Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/31\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781936657780\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 106\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.37lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.25d","brand":"Pattie Palmer-Baker","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42870629138613,"sku":"9781936657780","price":14.44,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_3bc59592-1d00-4bb7-85fe-37406e342eb0.jpg?v=1684271023","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/five-fundamental-forces-9781936657780","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
