Whether writing from the debris-strewn shores of a contaminated canal or from the hospital room of a friend, Nelson charts each emotional landscape she encounters with unparalleled precision and empathy. Since its publication in 2007, the collection has proven itself to be both a record of a singular vision in the making as well as a timeless meditation on love, loss, and―perhaps most frightening of all―freedom.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50394604962065,"sku":"CIN1933368802G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1933368802.jpg?v=1751218942","url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/en-gb\/products\/something-bright-then-holes-book-maggie-nelson-9781933368801","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
