{"product_id":"9781936097609","title":"Betweenness","description":"\u003cp\u003eVarun Ravindran's full-length debut,Betweenness, is poetic polyphony and counterpoint. Formally inventive, at times layering multiple voices, and at other points, implementing sheet music as poetic form, Ravindran explores spirituality; his experience as an immigrant existing in the peripheries of both Indian and American culture, but part of neither; and of history, as he speaks on his late father and grandafther, both of whom struggled with alcoholism until their deaths. Accumulating into chords and intervals, these poems unite in a song of self that contains multitudes of voice and of form. Piece-by-piece they are hyaline and complex, while the affect of the whole crescendoes into an authentic and important new voice in American poetry. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Varun Ravindran","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52421267685694,"sku":"9781936097609","price":387.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4357\/7662\/files\/9781936097609.jpg?v=1761227176","url":"https:\/\/exclusivebooks.co.za\/products\/9781936097609","provider":"Exclusive Books Online","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
