Her poems also cover identity issues with her race and religion\/spirituality. Compared to the likes of Walt Whitman and Sylvia Plath, Yamashiro's writing emanates the artistry and transparency reminiscent of surrealism and confessional poetry, respectively. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEven with the heavy subjects she often writes on, a sizeable portion of these works are empowering and optimistic. Within every abuse\/ trauma survivor is the core that fights back: the vigor which knows the strength that has never left. This collection shows both the struggle against life's tribulations and the acknowledgement of a survivor's power. Yamashiro's poetry is her peach-pit gas mask, giving her the vitality to navigate through life's mustard gas-filled battlefield of opposition and obstacles. \u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 214\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.45 x 8 x 5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e September 15, 2021\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53301573484851,"sku":"9781736850206","price":21.04,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/PEXcwgL7n9781736850206.webp?v=1777513192","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/en-ca\/products\/the-peach-pit-mask-a-poetry-collection-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
