{"product_id":"bright-eyed-9781946116284","title":"Bright-Eyed","description":"Thirty-two poems recall this native New Yorker's childhood relocation with her family to sunny California (The San Fernando Valley); growing up on the West Coast in the 1960s-as a preteen, teen, and young adult; and her responses to her new surroundings and the times. Several poems explore the interracial tension of the times (Watts Riots, Civil Rights Amendment) from the viewpoint of a young person whose older sister created an interracial family. From the perspectives of both family and race, the poet explores her relationships with her nephew, niece, and brother-in-law. If you like the work of Diane Wakoski or James Broughton, you will enjoy the whim and wit this book.\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Poets Wear Prada","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50919480754450,"sku":"9781946116284","price":15.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/4771\/8930\/files\/img_dbe3fbdf-59d0-4ccb-a749-375d818ad769.jpg?v=1738895714","url":"https:\/\/surprise-castle.myshopify.com\/products\/bright-eyed-9781946116284","provider":"Surprise Castle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
