Inspired by haibun, a stylistic form of Japanese poetry invented by 17th-century poet, Matsuo Bashō to chronicle his journeys in remote Japan, Bradfield uses photographs, compressed prose, and short poems to examine our relationship to remoteness, discovery, expertise, awe, labor, temporary societies, \"pure\" landscapes, and tourism's service economy. Antarctica was the focus of Bradfield's \u003cem\u003eApproaching Ice\u003c\/em\u003e, written before she had set foot on the continent; now \u003cem\u003eToward Antarctica\u003c\/em\u003e furthers her investigation with boots on the ground. A complicated love letter, \u003cem\u003eToward Antarctica\u003c\/em\u003e offers a unique view of one of the world's most iconic wild places.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 160\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.3 x 8.5 x 7.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e May 09, 2019\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47349276377337,"sku":"9781597098861","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/N1ZFeldYYS9GeEUrZE5LdmczeVBkdz09_86afb4e0-d43c-4729-9254-426ebf5a2b10.webp?v=1769779097","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/toward-antarctica-paperback-2","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
