Hartman\u003c\/b\u003e (Author)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCharles O. Hartman's eighth book of poems, \u003cem\u003eDownfall of the Straight Line\u003c\/em\u003e, vibrates with dazzling rhythms, masterful syntax, linguistic wit, and descriptions that are precise and surprising at the same time. From a dead backyard tree to a Greek city, from a lovers' bed to a lost lover, the poems display both intellectual depth and emotional complexity. We hear the voices of pianos, a donkey, and the supernova birthing the Crab Nebula; we watch as the poet scrutinizes the moon, and listen as he contemplates death, \"a sudden change in plans for the afternoon.\" Hartman wastes no words: every stanza shows a nimble mind at work. \u003cem\u003eDownfall of the Straight Line\u003c\/em\u003e is a book to read with attention and delight. And then to read again.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 108\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.26 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e May 05, 2024\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52729489555763,"sku":"9798987924198","price":27.52,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/PZi3gM3eXb9798987924198.webp?v=1763812524","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/en-ca\/products\/downfall-of-the-straight-line-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
