Here is a poetry of witnessing--theological, emotional, intellectual--a private end to a century's horrors, a reminder that not all things begin again, and that from some reaches of experience instruction shines far less than the beauty of the survivor's report.” —\u003ci\u003eJorie Graham\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eISBN:  9781555973742\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e ","brand":"Graywolf Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":40593248813262,"sku":"9781555973742","price":14.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0600\/7029\/7806\/products\/getimage_ac0cbbfd-546e-4cd9-b773-027ccde0bf69.jpg?v=1637784425","url":"https:\/\/pickwickbookshop.com\/products\/9781555973742","provider":"Pickwick Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
