{"product_id":"9781848615236","title":"Facing West","description":"\u003cp\u003e\"Facing West achieves true illuminations of the places and uses of myth. Corcoran's lines balance impressively between sometimes cryptic, aphoristic phrases and an orality encountered in song -and in great poetry. Several poems are almost like screens with a critical or philosophical text behind them; and the verse emerges stranger, and stronger, for the incidents in other books it points us to...The overall edifice in Facing West allows entrances by prose passages -often, apparently, autobiographical; also talismanic insertions from other tongues, sometimes acronyms and street names. Yet, these often fragmentary structures develop as an experiment in narrative across separate sections, they work as a book. And in the end, nothing feels out of place.\" (Paschalis Nikolaou)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shearsman Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48803301425387,"sku":"00000_00000_00000_00000","price":32.96,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0758\/4484\/5803\/files\/9781848615236-1.jpg?v=1781708590","url":"https:\/\/kinokuniya.com.sg\/ja\/products\/9781848615236","provider":"Books Kinokuniya Singapore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
