This method has been forged in part by her ability to render the harsh beauties of the southwestern landscapes that have been her adopted home. - David Wojahn, author of World Tree","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50107240612113,"sku":"CIN0826353622G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0826353622.jpg?v=1786130552"},{"product_id":"library-of-small-happiness-book-leslie-ullman-9780997201123","title":"Library of Small happiness","description":null,"brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50664010154257,"sku":"CIN0997201126G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":51329590493457,"sku":"CIN0997201126VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0997201126.jpg?v=1751364969"},{"product_id":"you-that-all-along-has-housed-you-book-leslie-ullman-9781732660038","title":"The You That All Along Has Housed You","description":null,"brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51048787411217,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51048790327569,"sku":"NIN9781732660038","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/B0BM3CXX7B.jpg?v=1751121825"},{"product_id":"slow-work-through-sand-book-leslie-ullman-9780877456155","title":"Slow Work Through Sand","description":"For a number of years, Leslie Ullman has lived in the Southwest, on cultivated land, in the company of horses and with access to uncultivated desert. The seasons and conditions of this starkly appealing land have found their way into the poet and her work. Ullman creates origins for herself in nature, in solitude, in animals, and of course through those aspects of human relationships which teach important lessons. Since winning the prestigious Yale Younger Poets Award in 1979, Ullman has manifested her love of language as both writer and teacher. As she remembers from her youthful summers in a Wisconsin lake lodge: Sometimes the words I read were the tap of rain on the roof or the fire snapping in its great stone bed, but mostly they bloomed as the sound of the lake, a mantra against the weathered dock She writes that her book may be trying to validate the history of women -- the title of one of the poems -- just as men's history has always validated hugely and by implication the way we use language and the way history has been taught. Hers is not a defensive or an angry intention, however, but an exciting one. Slow Work through Sand attempts simply to make visible the dance a woman's life is, not apart from other dances but as a valid dance among dances.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51327414468881,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":51327417057553,"sku":"CIN0877456151G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0877456151.jpg?v=1786134276"},{"product_id":"unruly-tree-book-leslie-ullman-9780826366702","title":"Unruly Tree","description":"The cryptic prompts - fragments, really - of Eno's and Schmidt's Oblique Strategies unveiled themselves to Leslie Ullman as rough translations from an obscure language. As an experiment, Ullman used each one as a poem title, and in doing so she accessed a thrill of freedom, uncertainty and propulsion beyond her own familiar patterns and landscapes.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51384911626513,"sku":"NIN9780826366702","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":51773756539153,"sku":"NGR9780826366702","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":51985864065297,"sku":"CIN0826366708G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0826366708.jpg?v=1785893347"},{"product_id":"little-soul-and-the-selves-book-leslie-ullman-9781737056072","title":"Little Soul and the Selves","description":"Poetry Book","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":52101251989777,"sku":"CIN1737056070G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9781737056072.jpg?v=1757092534"},{"product_id":"natural-histories-book-leslie-ullman-9780300023305","title":"Natural Histories","description":"Winner of the 1978 Yale Series of Younger Poets competition","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52131486597393,"sku":"NLS9780300023305","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9780300023305.jpg?v=1786711356"},{"product_id":"dreams-by-no-one-s-daughter-book-leslie-ullman-9781504029469","title":"Dreams By No One's Daughter","description":"Leslie Ullman traces through her speaker one woman's attempt to find herself and then to live that discovered self within an alien wilderness that ranges from the indifferent to the frankly dangerous.

Perhaps in response to the uncertain nature of the external world in \u003ci\u003eDreams by No One's Daughter\u003c\/i\u003e, Ullman's are very much poems of metamorphosis, of becoming rather than static being. --Stephen C.
