This is a writer who loves the places and the people she writes about. With \u003cem\u003eFree Ticket\u003c\/em\u003e, there is a strong emotional punch right at the beginning, a sense of loss and grief, that comes back in \u003cem\u003eAt the Cafe During WeFest\u003c\/em\u003e. There are poems that hearken back to childhood and ground us. We are invited into the writer's world, traveling the back roads of northern Minnesota, listening to church bells in a rural town, and watching seagulls follow the plow, seemingly ordinary events with revealing angles exposed by the poet's eye. In the juxtaposition between\u003cem\u003e Tornado\u003c\/em\u003e and \u003cem\u003eOne Perfect Summer Evening\u003c\/em\u003e, Belar suggests how art and community can help us get past devastation. Beginning to end, page by page, \u003cem\u003eRural Score\u003c\/em\u003e reveals a poet who writes because she loves this place. \u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 32\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.08 x 8.5 x 5.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e June 30, 2017\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48290482520313,"sku":"9781635342468","price":21.58,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/FdYuFC1v3N9781635342468.webp?v=1776283868","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/rural-score-paperback","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
