{"product_id":"the-lives-of-the-poems-and-three-talks-9781940696423","title":"The Lives of the Poems and Three Talks","description":"During 2014, Wave Books editor Joshua Beckman traveled around the country giving lectures on poetry. Collected here as two books in conversation--and inaugurating Wave's Bagley Wright Lecture Series publications--these talks provide a rare and unique insight into a deeply literary life. In \u003cem\u003eThe Lives of the Poems\u003c\/em\u003e, Beckman offers three variations of the same talk that--through repetition and adjustment, a sort of echolocating--illuminate the intimate experience of making a particular set of poems. In \u003cem\u003eThree Talks\u003c\/em\u003e, he explores the fluid social dynamics of poetry as it lives between readers, poems, and books.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Wave Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/01\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781940696423\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.60lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.20h x 6.00w x 0.60d","brand":"Joshua Beckman","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36671520047260,"sku":"9781940696423","price":21.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_a3a26869-09e8-4b55-bf19-885678ad5cc9.jpg?v=1603925601","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/the-lives-of-the-poems-and-three-talks-9781940696423","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
