What happens when the objects that surround us--a wedding ring, an empty purse, a harp--reveal necessary truths about ourselves and those we love? As the book unfolds, lush sensory details and unmatched lyricism are brought to bear on these lingering concerns in a style as neoclassical as it is contemporary. In poems that radiate with intelligence, Mormoris combines understated elegance with finely tuned music and evocative imagery.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Tupelo Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/24\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781961209190\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 72","brand":"Stelios Mormoris","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45150659903669,"sku":"9781961209190","price":16.96,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_10a626fd-7284-42ed-ad6b-6f43d0763c16.jpg?v=1741104797","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/perishable-9781961209190","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
