{"product_id":"last-day-of-my-face-9781685970161","title":"Last Day of My Face","description":"James Shea's collection deepens his exploration of the elegiac imagination, sending estranged speakers into new fields of quiet crisis. Orbiting a vast absence, Last Day of My Face reveals a kaleidoscopic perspective on impermanence: \"Tomorrow \/ is a partial and promised gift.\" \u003cbr\u003e Rich with reversals, short poems are wedged against skittery contemplations, and an easeful tone coexists with a vein of darkness. Akin to lucid dreaming, this startling volume builds toward a final poem that gathers fragments of selves into a wondrous whole. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eJames Shea\u003c\/b\u003e's previous collections include \u003ci\u003eThe Lost Novel \u003c\/i\u003eand \u003ci\u003eStar in the Eye\u003c\/i\u003e.
