These poems--in turn elegiac, celebratory, haunting, grave, and joyful--give hum to our modern experience, to those caught up in the City's immensity, and announce the arrival of a major new contemporary poet.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rarewaves","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55421411557750,"sku":"9781571314451","price":13.91,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0092\/7504\/8033\/files\/orig_27893628.jpg?v=1742889514","url":"https:\/\/www.rarewaves.com\/products\/9781571314451-the-city-our-city","provider":"Rarewaves.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
