{"product_id":"selected-poems","title":"Selected Poems","description":"Michael Rosen's \u003ci\u003eSelected Poems \u003c\/i\u003eis a wonderfully moving sequence of prose poems extracted from his acclaimed autobiographical triptych, \u003ci\u003eCarrying the Elephant\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eThis is Not My Nose \u003c\/i\u003eand \u003ci\u003eIn the Colonie\u003c\/i\u003e. In a series of artful, deceptively simple poems, Rosen covers a vast terrain, collating vivid and fragmentary memories from his left-wing Jewish upbringing, his teenage holiday at a socialist summer camp in France, his London childhood and the death of his eighteen-year-old son from meningitis. He takes in, along the way, marriage, divorce, births and the undiagnosed illness (an underactive thyroid) from which Rosen suffered for ten years.","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57466546258293,"sku":"9780141024554","price":12.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9780141024554.jpg?v=1785654605","url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/products\/selected-poems","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
