These elliptical and colloquial lyrics draw equally from parable, prayer, and elegy. Hesitating on the threshold between isolation and community, the poet focuses a distortedly accurate microscope on what matters in our lives. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e-Publishers Weekly\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt's such a delight when something catches you by surprise and makes you read on-and on. So it is with Waldor, a superb lyric, gnomic, and gnostic poet.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e-Gerald Stern\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhat strange rooms and quirky music Waldor's poems open into, his vision proves to us that the imaginal and rational share equal claims on perception. The heart \/mind of this work spiritualizes the material and materializes the soul.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e-Li-Young Lee\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePeter Waldor's new book combines the unaffected, wise, intimate tone of the old Asian masters, sometimes joyful, sometimes heartbroken, often affectionate, with a tone of his own, a 21st century, 'first world' voice, more jaunty and optimistic-seeming, yet sometimes struggling for breath. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e-Jean Valentine\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 102\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.21 x 9.02 x 5.98 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e October 23, 2020\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54054669254963,"sku":"9781952326554","price":31.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/liaaojeq7r9781952326554.webp?v=1789030358","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/products\/something-about-the-way-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
