In the poems of \u003cem\u003eAugury\u003c\/em\u003e, revelation is found in nature's smallest details: a lizard's quick movements, a tree scarred by lighting, the white curve of a snail's shell. Here the sensory world and the imagined one collide in unexpected and wonderful ways, as Pankey scrutinizes the physical for meaning, and that meaning for truth.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith uncommon grace, each of Pankey's precise lyrics advances our shared ontological questions and expresses our deepest contradictions. In a world of mystery, should we focus on finding meaning or creating it? How can the known--and the unknown--be captured in language? \"If one cannot see clearly,\" Pankey writes, borrowing from Freud, \"one at least wants \/ what is unclear to be in focus.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eAugury\u003c\/em\u003e is a masterful and magical collection from a poet of stirring intelligence, \"a book of stones unstitched from the wolf's belly.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 98\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.4 x 8.3 x 5.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e November 07, 2017\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47351101784313,"sku":"9781571314796","price":16.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/OVVickRhSkpEbWo4eDFIdlY2Yk5YUT09.webp?v=1769795162","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/augury-poems-paperback","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
