{"product_id":"zenos-eternity-9781589881709","title":"Zeno's Eternity","description":"The poems in Mark Jarman's new collection, \u003ci\u003eZeno's Eternity\u003c\/i\u003e, take their cue from Zeno's paradox, which says that since space is infinitely divisible, an arrow traveling toward a target will never reach its destination. Everything exists in a kind of suspension. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eFrom \"The Arrow Paradox\" \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eZeno sent\u003cbr\u003ehis arrow flying\u003cbr\u003eendlessly from point\u003cbr\u003eto point along its arc\u003cbr\u003eto make a point\u003cbr\u003eabout eternity: \u003cbr\u003egetting there is tricky. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThough our lives run on, we may feel that certain moments are timeless, and love that moves us toward each other can give us a sense of eternity. Portraying moments from ordinary life and from times long past, moments both pivotal and mundane, Jarman encourages the reader to feel the beat of time and its inexplicable stillness. By making scenes indelible, the poet stops time; and we might ask ourselves, is this not only Zeno's eternity, but ours, too? \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Paul Dry Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/10\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781589881709\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 85\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.20lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.30h x 5.40w x 0.30d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview Citations: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/21\/2022\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Mark Jarman","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42520600805557,"sku":"9781589881709","price":14.41,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_4f230ee5-8396-452c-a912-3c2bc80b59ff.jpg?v=1669130204","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/zenos-eternity-9781589881709","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
