{"product_id":"more-tender-ocean","title":"More Tender Ocean","description":"Natalee Caple made quite a splash with her first two books, The Heart is its Own Reason, a short-story collection from Insomniac Press, and The Plight of Happy People in an Ordinary World, a novel from House of Anansi Press.  With A More Tender Ocean Caple turns her hand to poetry, and the results are no less dazzling. The poems were written using a Surrealist technique called automatic writing -- a kind of poetic impressionism after speed-reading. The effect is a kind of dreamlike state -- everything isn't quite as it should be, as though it had all been seen through the facet of a diamond. The poems are lyrical, erotic, gentle, happy, sad and strangely beautiful.  A More Tender Ocean is unusual but immensely moving and compelling, tender but not maudlin. 'What goes on seems ordinary,' writes Caple. Rest assured, it is not.","brand":"Coach House Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54228955922776,"sku":"9781552450574","price":18.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781552450574_0115cc3e-4f46-46e6-a707-618fb20cc340.jpg?v=1765284461","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/more-tender-ocean","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
