NIGHT IS SIMPLY A SHADOW is Greta Wrolstad's long-anticipated first full-length collection. From the expansive opening poem, \"Notes on Sea and Shore,\" to the final \"Fontaine de Vaucluse,\" Wrolstad navigates the metaphorical intersection of internal and external landscapes in writing that is lyrically rich, formally buoyant, and constantly inventive. NIGHT IS SIMPLY A SHADOW represents the work of a poet who promised to be a major talent of her generation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\"Wrolstad's work has, at its core, an elemental need: to locate what is human within otherworldly and inhuman landscapes. A deep, radiant light carries towards us when we least expect it. Below every surface is a weightless interior, a sometimes-terrible liquid suspension, and her gift is to be able to picture, again and again, how we branch and connect—how we might emerge whole.\"—Joanna Klink\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Open Books: A Poem Emporium","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":31337281454103,"sku":"9781935635246","price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0004\/6497\/7956\/products\/content_270a068a-a922-4293-a59e-ef728fa46916.jpg?v=1586746139","url":"https:\/\/open-books-a-poem-emporium.myshopify.com\/products\/night-is-simply-a-shadow-by-greta-wrolstad","provider":"Open Books: A Poem Emporium","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
