{"product_id":"books-homie-by-danez-smith","title":"Homie","description":"'A deeply personal collection... and provocative and moving meditation on friendship, sex and blackness,' Guardian  'In its cutting compassion, Homie is as much a celebration of loved ones' lives as it is a lament for their loss, equally a war cry for kinship and the burial dirge after the battle' Amanda Gorman  A mighty anthem about the saving grace of friendship, Danez Smith's highly anticipated collection Homie is rooted in their search for joy and intimacy in a time where both are scarce. In poems of rare power and generosity, Smith acknowledges that in a country overrun by violence, xenophobia and disparity, and in a body defined by race, queerness, and diagnosis, it can be hard to survive, even harder to remember reasons for living. But then the phone lights up, or a shout comes up to the window, and family - blood and chosen - arrives with just the right food and some redemption.  Part friendship diary, part bright elegy, part war cry, Homie is written for friends: for Danez's friends, for yours.  'This is a book full of the turbulence of thought and desire, piloted by a writer who never loses their way' New York Times","brand":"World of Books ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53672690778385,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9781784743055.jpg?v=1781520853","url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/products\/books-homie-by-danez-smith","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
