Fluent in many modes--lyric to documentary--the poet commands varied poetic forms. That we dwell in metaphorical limbos by virtue of our unpredictable earthly sojourn is a haunting truth this book both illuminates and celebrates.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ LIKE_NEW \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49598308122897,"sku":"GOR013384519","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":51844173070609,"sku":"CIN1933880597G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1933880597.jpg?v=1750997377"},{"product_id":"placebo-effects-book-jeanne-marie-beaumont-9780393318913","title":"Placebo Effects","description":"\"This collection of beguiling poems . . . takes as its avenue into experience the palpable, quotidian objects of the intimate environment.
