{"product_id":"alan-birkelbach-new-and-selected-poems-9780875653402","title":"Alan Birkelbach: New and Selected Poems","description":"Birkelbach writes of the Texas landscape and its people with conversational ease, making his vivid descriptions shimmer through each poem. He balances the ordinary and the phenomenal, the factual and the suppositional, the temporal and the eternal in poems remarkable for their depth of insight. As Billy Bob Hill writes in his introduction to the volume, Birkelbach can disguise a mosaic of word music in plain sight hidden in conversational English.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Alan Birkelbach\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Texas Christian University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/01\/2007\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 96\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.61lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.17h x 6.27w x 0.50d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780875653402\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAlan Birkelbach's volumes of poetry include \u003ci\u003eNo Boundaries\u003c\/i\u003e, Grand Prize Winner of the Pat Stodghill Book Publication Award, and \u003ci\u003eWeighed in the Balances\u003c\/i\u003e, Grand Prize Winner of the Steves Poetry Manuscript Competition.
