{"product_id":"common-5","title":"Common","description":"At the heart of Gail Mazur's \u003ci\u003eThe Common\u003c\/i\u003e is the refusal to simplify what is paradoxical in our world and a recognition of the tensions in our own divided nature. These unflinching poems create a place where wisdom and foolishness, fear and courage, rage and pity, love and diffidence, naturally co-exist.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDesire, ambition, devotion, and devastating loss are all subjects for Mazur's clear-eyed poems, which resonate with the contradictions between the body's yearning and the mind's acknowledgment of the consequences of our choices. In a poetry driven by unrelenting questioning, Mazur tries, in Rilke's worlds, \"to love the questions themselves.\"","brand":"The University of Chicago Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54218450829656,"sku":"9780226514390","price":28.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/common-5","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
