{"product_id":"9781936970704","title":"Would We Still Be by James Henry Knippen","description":"Poems that?acknowledge the existential anxieties of our age while continuing to?celebrate?the beauty and musicality of language.? ? In?Would We Still Be, James Henry?Knippen?crafts the anxieties that emanate from?human?existence-grief, fear, hopelessness, uncertainty-into poetic reflections that express a deep reverence for the musicality and incantational capacity of language. Like a moon or a wren, two of the book's obsessions, these?haunting?poems?call?us to consider beauty's connection to the transitory. Among the ghosts that wander these pages-those of loved ones, those we are,?and?those we?will become-Knippen?asks if image is enough, if sound is enough, if faith is enough. In doing so, these poems seek out the soul's communion with voice, encouraging us to sing our fate.\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback \/ softback","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56309524136309,"sku":"9781936970704","price":13.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9781936970704.jpg?v=1762812185","url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/products\/9781936970704","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
