At once vulnerable and redemptive, dreamlike and visceral, compassionate and unforgiving, these poems seek a myriad existence without forgetting the prerequisite of self-preservation in a world bent on extinguishing its othered voices. Vuong's poems show, through breath, cadence, and unrepentant enthrallment, that a gentle palm on a chest can calm the most necessary of hungers.","brand":"Tantor","offers":[{"title":"Audiobook","offer_id":49832698544432,"sku":"BDlihp","price":7.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Audio CD","offer_id":49862915129648,"sku":"ZElihp","price":25.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Audio MP3-CD","offer_id":49862915162416,"sku":"ZMlihp","price":45.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0879\/2784\/9264\/files\/lihp-Square-cover.jpg?v=1780607456","url":"https:\/\/downpour.com\/products\/book-lihp","provider":"Downpour","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
