{"product_id":"voices-daughter-of-a-heart-yet-to-be-born-9781566894388","title":"Voice's Daughter of a Heart Yet to Be Born","description":"Coming in the wake of her vast and magnificent epic (\u003ci\u003eThe Iovis Trilogy: Colors in the Mechanism of Concealment\u003c\/i\u003e), this volume brings Anne Waldman's work into the more intimate, paradoxical folds of poetic (and prophetic) knowledge. This should not suggest that \u003ci\u003eVoice's Daughter of a Heart Yet to Be Born\u003c\/i\u003e is a book of small things; it is anything but. Juxtaposing lyric arcana, journalism, critical fragments, visions of mythic and mystic beings, narrative, polemics, and even ekphrasis, Waldman has created a work that is simultaneously jeremiad and psalm. It is, then, both fearful and celebratory, an epic of a 'time before birth.' \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003ePraise for Anne Waldman: \u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\"Waldman brings her wild, oracular voice to the environmental questions that currently bedevil us.\" \u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003e--Booklist\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eFrom \"Citadels Thel Leaves Ringing\" \u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eWe got to Mars.
