{"product_id":"burn-poems-barbara-hamby-paperback","title":"Burn: Poems -- Barbara Hamby, Paperback","description":"The world is burning with fire and hatred, but at the same time it is filled with love and incredible beauty. The poems in \u003ci\u003eBurn\u003c\/i\u003e tango with why the world is so beautiful and terrible at the same time. Hamby asserts that everything is a mess--how do we walk through it laughing and crying? Sometimes you look back and think, \"How was I so lucky? I could have died a thousand times, but I didn't. But I will.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Barbara Hamby\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Pittsburgh Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/07\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 88\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.40lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 7.20w x 0.50d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780822967521\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBarbara Hamby\u003ci\u003e \u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eis the author of \u003ci\u003eHoloholo\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eBird Odyssey\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eOn the Street of Divine Love: New and Selected Poems\u003c\/i\u003e. \u003ci\u003eBurn\u003c\/i\u003e is her eighth book of poems.
