{"product_id":"the-mayapple-forest-9781947896598","title":"The Mayapple Forest","description":"\u003cp\u003e\"Shelve your losses. Taste spoonfuls in remembrance,\" exhorts Kim Ports Parsons in this moving and lyrical first collection, The Mayapple Forest. A profound generosity of spirit guides these poems, as the poet navigates a landscape of both loss and abundance. The old homestead, the mother's presence, the lost child and lost self are set against an enduring natural plenty: of gardens, the gathering of food, and the sweetness of cooking with family. Sometimes shadows are raised, sometimes pain suggested-the mayapple's dangerous, delicious lure-but always, the work transcends to a deepening mindfulness, and an authentic acceptance of the world as it actually is. May we all learn from these beautifully compassionate and discerning poems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e -Janet MacFadyen\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Terrapin Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/31\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781947896598\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 104\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.36lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.25d","brand":"Kim Ports Parsons","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42429151150261,"sku":"9781947896598","price":14.45,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_68c9b1b4-b17c-4e6f-a389-977c07ce7c0f.jpg?v=1664892327","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/the-mayapple-forest-9781947896598","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
