{"product_id":"for-you-for-you-i-am-trilling-these-songs-9781582435459","title":"For You, for You I Am Trilling These Songs","description":"In this collection about life as a twentysomething in the twenty-first century, Kathleen Rooney writes with the finesse of someone well beyond her years, but with fresh insights that reveal a girl still making discoveries at every turn. Varied and original, the tales in \u003ci\u003eFor You, For You I Am Trilling These Songs\u003c\/i\u003e recount the perils of falling in love with the unlikeliest of people, of visiting the New York apartments of a vanished poet, and of touring an animal retirement home with her parents. Of getting a Brazilian wax, and of chauffeuring a U.S. senator around town. Of saying good-bye to a cousin who's joining a convent, and of trying to convince herself that she's not wasting her life. This is a book about love and longing, poetry and plagiarism, death and democracy, mountain floods and Midwestern cicadas. Here is a young woman struggling to find her place as an adult and a citizen in an America that rarely manages to live up to Whitman's dream of it. With this book, Rooney sings--yes, in fact, she \u003ci\u003etrills\u003c\/i\u003e--loud and clear.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Counterpoint LLC\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/01\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781582435459\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 256\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.65lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.10h x 5.50w x 0.70d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview Citations: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/16\/2009 pg. 47\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 02\/01\/2010 pg. 16\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Kathleen Rooney","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44775956021429,"sku":"9781582435459","price":14.41,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_00b648e4-2dde-4f04-bfc3-197a1f103974.jpg?v=1730821504","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/for-you-for-you-i-am-trilling-these-songs-9781582435459","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
