{"product_id":"shards-poems-2007-2010","title":"Shards: (poems 2007-2010)","description":"Debut collection of poems from New Jersey native, William Barker, composed between 2007-2010. Many of the poems featured here were birthed during a transitional phase in the poet's life when he left behind his first post-college, \"career\" job to pursue the writer's life, following his own instincts and heart. William pulls no punches, tackling many of life's fears, cliches, emotions, and frustrations with a delicate eye. Within these pages lurks a beautiful pessimism accomplished through radiant language. A wide range of subjects are tackled including: a lost mentor, giant sequoia's, rain; poet Charles Bukowski, digital books, alcoholism; death, and the suicide of a woman on live television.","brand":"William Barker","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44068374839338,"sku":"9781533234476","price":5.38,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0690\/0891\/6522\/files\/shards-poems-2007-2010-2830262.jpg?v=1770879613","url":"https:\/\/thepoetryshop.com\/products\/shards-poems-2007-2010","provider":"The Poetry Shop LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
