{"product_id":"drift-9780887847271","title":"Drift","description":"What are we thinking at any given moment? What happens to a thought as that moment, on its way to oblivion, collides with its successor?\n\nRambunctious, witty, joyous, and bittersweet, drift is an investigation conducted by a truly unfettered imagination. In fluid, sparkling cadences, Kevin Connolly's poems let the mind's downtime have the stage for a change -- the desert sky transformed; Spring Break as viewed by passing skipjacks; narratives of danger and dream narrative; a meditation on the business end of a sea cucumber; figures of history disfigured and left to wander the consumer grid -- such are the entirely odd, entirely current events in Connolly's world, a realm that stands at an acute angle from the place we normally live in but which we all seem to drift into. As one of Connolly's own high-voltage sonnets states, \"what stops the heart starts the world.\"\n\nIn drift's constant juxtaposition of abundance and loneliness, we hear what it is to confront a new century, having quite likely failed during the last. We're reminded, by a voice unlike any other on the Canadian landscape, that our solitude is painful yet precious.","brand":"Kevin Connolly","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48284267315451,"sku":"9780887847271","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0779\/3917\/9771\/files\/9780887847271.jpg?v=1772483307","url":"https:\/\/indiepubs.com\/products\/drift-9780887847271","provider":"IndiePubs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
