{"product_id":"ghost-girl-9780142000649","title":"Ghost Girl","description":"Sly and sophisticated, direct, playful, and profound, Amy Gerstler's new collection highlights her distinctive poetic style. In thirty-seven poems, using a variety of dramatic voices and visual techniques, she finds meaning in unexpected places, from a tour of a doll hospital to an ad for a CD of Beethoven symphonies to an earthy exploration of toast. Gerstler's abiding interests--in love and mourning, in science and pseudoscience, in the idea of an afterlife, in seances and magic--are all represented here. Entertaining and erudite, complex yet accessible, these poems will enhance Gerstler's reputation as an important contemporary poet.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Amy Gerstler\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Penguin Adult Hc\/Tr\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/06\/2004\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 80\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.26lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.06w x 0.24d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780142000649\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e Great Stone Face Book Award - Nominee\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 03\/22\/2004 pg. 81\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 04\/15\/2004 pg. 1417\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/16\/2004 pg. 28\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 07\/01\/2004 pg. 87\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAmy Gerstler\u003c\/b\u003e is a writer of fiction, poetry, and journalism whose work has appeared in numerous magazines and anthologies, including the \u003cb\u003eParis Review\u003c\/b\u003e and \u003cb\u003eBest American Poetry\u003c\/b\u003e.
