{"product_id":"the-grand-harmony-9781911414353","title":"The Grand Harmony","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe extraordinarily inventive Ukrainian poet and literary critic Bohdan Ihor Antonych (1909-1937), the son of a Catholic priest, died prematurely at the early age of 28 of pneumonia. Originally from the mountainous Lemko region in Poland, where a variant of Ukrainian is spoken, he was home-schooled for the first eleven years of his life because of frequent illness. He began to write poetry in Ukrainian after he moved to the Western Ukrainian city of Lviv to continue his studies at the University of Lviv. He published just three collections of poetry in his lifetime: \u003cem\u003eA Greeting to Life\u003c\/em\u003e (1931), \u003cem\u003eThree Rings\u003c\/em\u003e (1934), and \u003cem\u003eThe Book of the Lion\u003c\/em\u003e (1936\u003cem\u003e)\u003c\/em\u003e, with the latter two firmly establishing his reputation as one of the best poets of his time in Ukraine. Three additional collections, \u003cem\u003eThe Green Gospel\u003c\/em\u003e (1938), \u003cem\u003eRotations\u003c\/em\u003e (1938), and \u003cem\u003eThe Grand Harmony\u003c\/em\u003e (1967), were published posthumously. A collection of poems on religious themes written in 1932 and 1933, \u003cem\u003eThe Grand Harmony\u003c\/em\u003e is a subtle and supple examination of Antonych's intimately personal journey to faith, with all its revelatory verities as well as self-questioning and doubt. The collection marks the beginning of Antonych's development into one of the greatest poets of his time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Glagoslav Publications B.V.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/20\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781911414353\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 76\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.20lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.00w x 0.18d","brand":"Bohdan Ihor Antonych","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42875212005557,"sku":"9781911414353","price":21.24,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_dcc071d1-f022-44df-898c-e8a9178c07e3.jpg?v=1684814967","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/the-grand-harmony-9781911414353","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
