{"product_id":"burying-the-mountain","title":"Burying the Mountain","description":"In Shangyang Fang's debut \u003ci\u003eBurying the Mountain, \u003c\/i\u003e longing and loss rush through a portal of difficult beauty. Absence is translated into fire ants and snow, a boy's desire is transfigured into the indifference of mountains and rivers, and loneliness finds its place in the wounded openness of language. From the surface of a Song Dynasty ink-wash painting to a makeshift bedroom in Chengdu, these poems thread intimacy, eros, and grief. Evoking the music of ancient Chinese poetry, Fang alloys political erasure, exile, remembrance, and death into a single brushstroke on the silk scroll, where names are forgotten as paper boats on water.","brand":"Shangyang Fang","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44816587030570,"sku":"9781556596148","price":16.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0690\/0891\/6522\/files\/burying-the-mountain-3065427.jpg?v=1789040586","url":"https:\/\/thepoetryshop.com\/products\/burying-the-mountain","provider":"The Poetry Shop LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
