{"product_id":"i-will-say-beauty-9780810151390","title":"I Will Say Beauty","description":"The thrilling new collection from the Pushcart Prize-winning poet \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\"I will say beauty,\" Carol Frost boldly says in one of her new lyrical poems, beauty being for her and all of us elusive-in and out of nature. The phrase is meant as a cri de coeur, and the poems are arranged to offer a fresh way to look at--and exist within--nature. For Frost, beauty is a far cry from the decorous and social. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eFrost sets many of these poems in Florida's Cedar Keys, amidst the nesting areas of birds, cottonmouth snakes, wetlands, and tidal rhythms. The reader undertakes a journey through a tropical summer, where strange scents and sounds are signs of the transient beauties the imagination may possess for a moment. Drawing brilliantly from nature and from art, from the rhythms of life and the furies of emotion, Frost rejects standard responses and dares to ask: how do we perceive the world? When is beauty not enough? Can we imagine Paradise? And, when nature ordains that death must come, and we weaken, how do we die?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Triquarterly Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/14\/2003\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780810151390\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 96\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.34lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.86h x 7.12w x 0.28d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview Citations: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 04\/01\/2003 pg. 1366\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 04\/21\/2003 pg. 57\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 06\/01\/2003 pg. 126\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eWomen's Review of Books\u003c\/i\u003e 01\/01\/2004 pg. 17\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 04\/15\/2006 pg. 81\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Carol Frost","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52472754766005,"sku":"9780810151390","price":14.41,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_b0082dea-a345-40ee-a225-198cee838f1e.jpg?v=1777444294","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/i-will-say-beauty-9780810151390","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
