{"product_id":"feral-12","title":"Feral","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn richly detailed poems of wolf girls and feral boys, green children, and polar explorers, mermaids, orphans, and moth collectors, Janet McAdams explores the vexed relationship between human and non-human nature, between body and land. How to understand the voice lost between forest and city, which cries, “I am not wild, I am not human.” Why fear wildness? What lies in the need to tame ourselves and others? These are the questions raised in \u003cem\u003eFeral\u003c\/em\u003e, the eagerly anticipated second collection by the American Book Award winning author of \u003cem\u003eThe Island of Lost Luggage\u003c\/em\u003e. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\t\t\t\t\t\u003cp\u003eAt times tender, at times angry, the chorus of displaced voices in \u003cem\u003eFeral\u003c\/em\u003e maps our fractured relationship with the earth and issues a call for reunion. “What if the world came back?” one voice asks. What if “lake river ocean” called our bodies to remember? In the visionary anti-epic that concludes the book, a people struggle to understand their history as they journey toward their land of origin, toward the earth they are trying to remember. Through finely wrought imagery, a keen musicality, and a perspective that is both compassionate and exacting, this powerful collection explores how our relationship to land determines who we are –as individuals, as cultural beings, and as nations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\t\t\t\t\t\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Salt Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54224053961048,"sku":"9781844712953","price":16.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781844712953_d1b89a7b-d1c5-4925-b4b1-5c0f5bbeba33.jpg?v=1777032028","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/feral-12","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
