Wakan chose this particular format because it starts with an objective description of the image- \"Early morning \/ the dew still resting \/ where it settled\"-and then pivots to the poet's subjective reaction-\"would we could wake refreshed \/ to look at things in new ways\". Cote's photographs are the perfect inspiration for a poet-\"you're looking at my life and what I love; you're seeing bits and pieces of places I have been; and you're catching glimpses of the best moments of my life.\" The title, \u003cem\u003eNow and Here\u003c\/em\u003e, comes from Henry David Thoreau: \" . . . all these times and places and occasions are now and here.\"\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 0.25 x 8.25 x 5.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e October 12, 2021\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47349132722425,"sku":"9781956056099","price":23.71,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/OFFVWGRJSWxWQmoyVTFGWlhDa1pGUT09.webp?v=1769778943","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/now-and-here-paperback","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
