{"product_id":"9781509839087","title":"Self-Portrait in the Dark","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe dark attunes our eyes to detail the light can sometimes conceal; similarly, Colette Bryce's new poems are 'slant tellings' that reveal strange and true reflections. Using a wide range of imaginative strategies, Bryce examines the ways in which time is held, space enclosed - and a life framed and given meaning: a face in a broken mirror, a spider trapped under a glass, or a stolen kiss in a car-wash. Bryce's two previous prize-winning collections were widely admired for their marvellously seductive music and their speed of thought; Self-Portrait in the Dark widens and deepens the poet's scope, and is her most emotionally compelling collection to date.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e Praise for The Full Indian Rope Trick\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e '[Bryce's] poems, sensitive as the needle that registers some distant earth tremor, are delicately poised . . . Bryce's vision is questing, disquieting, dark . . . as she seeks out the truths of life and love that transform the human heart. This is a confident, complex, subversive collection that shows us the magic by which one becomes a mature poet' The Times\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Picador","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48803501211883,"sku":"00000_00000_00000_00000","price":27.44,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0758\/4484\/5803\/files\/9781509839087-1.jpg?v=1781685787","url":"https:\/\/kinokuniya.com.sg\/zh\/products\/9781509839087","provider":"Books Kinokuniya Singapore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
