The final section, \"That This,\" delivers beautiful short squares of verse that might look at home in a hymnal, with their orderly appearance packing startling power: \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e That this book is a history of\u003cbr\u003e a shadow that is a shadow of\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Me mystically one in another\u003cbr\u003e another another to subserve.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e New Directions Publishing Corporation\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/07\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780811219181\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 112\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.36lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.75h x 7.57w x 0.31d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview Citations: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 01\/17\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 02\/01\/2011 pg. 67\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Susan Howe","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42924928041141,"sku":"9780811219181","price":14.41,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_7177d220-2ba9-4835-a231-aa7d0ca5f884.jpg?v=1687841555","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/that-this-9780811219181","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
