{"product_id":"sunny-wednesday","title":"Sunny Wednesday","description":"Often breathtaking ...this latest collection from Kocot intersperses frantic images with hauntingly simple and loss-laden outcries. Throughout, there is the poet's thwarted longing for an understanding that cannot come: \"all poets and poetry elude me,\/ especially myself and my own\"; Kocot's speaker--a voice simultaneously adorable, helpless and deeply brave--is both obsessed with and frustrated by process: \"See, in a poem, things actually\/ have to be doing things,\/ not just floating around.\" ...Kocot's most lucid moments achieve a kind of visionary clarity (\"The waters are very simple today.\/ Hospital blue, in error of twilight\"), a beautiful refusal to accept the inevitable (\"Listen, I said it before, die\/ and come back as fire\") and inklings of the kind of loss that could yield such a powerful, almost overflowing book: \"I wait to go to you,\/ smoking and breaking curses under\/ the Jackson Pollock fuck you moon.\" --Publishers Weekly","brand":"Wave Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54231442850136,"sku":"9781933517391","price":16.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781933517391.jpg?v=1770712242","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/sunny-wednesday","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
