{"product_id":"fugue-for-other-hands-9781930781115","title":"Fugue for Other Hands","description":"\u003cp\u003eEloquent, haunting, and dangerously attuned to both the beauty and the suffering of almost everything alive, the poems in Joseph Fasano's exquisite \u003ci\u003eFugue for Other Hands\u003c\/i\u003e suggest the poetry Young Werther might have written if Goethe had transported him into 21st-century American adulthood instead of burying him under a linden tree in fictional Wahlheim. And yet there s no mistaking these poems so distinctive in their conception, and so bold in their execution for anyone else's. I can think of very few recent books of poetry that manage to create such a vivid, wild, psychologically resonant and quite possibly unforgettable atmosphere as that of Fasano's perpetual autumn--Timothy Donnelly\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSomewhat indescribable, as original things often are, the poems of Joseph Fasano feel hunted, gathered, built like fires, brewed like storms. Elemental and feral, \u003ci\u003eFugue for Other Hands\u003c\/i\u003e is full of disturbing deeds and haunted rituals. At once mythic and specific, these poems are blood-stained, grief-scarred, providing their solace only from their commitment to art's depths. \"Say you were the wild gift,\" one poem states; Fasano has such a gift, and therefore with his bare hands and torn heart makes poems worth living in. --Jeanne Marie Beaumont\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cider Press Review\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/01\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781930781115\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 80\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.85lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.80h x 6.00w x 0.40d","brand":"Joseph Fasano","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44902138806453,"sku":"9781930781115","price":15.26,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_1d1101c1-d245-4507-8080-9c32af189eda.jpg?v=1733813366","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/fugue-for-other-hands-9781930781115","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
