{"product_id":"god-particles-9780618931828","title":"God Particles","description":"\u003cp\u003eGod Particles displays the distinctive originality and unpredictability that prompted the Washington Post Book World to name Lux one of this generation's most gifted poets. A satiric edge, tempered by profound compassion, cuts through many of the poems in Lux's book. While themes of intolerance, inhumanity, loss, and a deep sense of mortality mark these poems, a lighthearted grace instills even the somberest moments with unexpected sweetness. In the title poem Lux writes, \"there's no reason for God to feel guilt \/ I think He was downhearted, weary, too weary \/ to be angry anymore . . . \/ He wanted each of us, \/ and all the things we touch . . . \/ to have a tiny piece of Him \/ though we are unqualified, \/ of even the crumb of a crumb.\" Dark, humorous, and strikingly imaginative, this is Lux's most compassionate work to date.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Thomas Lux\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Ecco Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/17\/2008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 80\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.66lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.08h x 6.36w x 0.56d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780618931828\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 02\/25\/2008 pg. 55\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 03\/15\/2008 pg. 17\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/01\/2008 pg. 69\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChristian Century\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/04\/2010 pg. 48","brand":"Ecco Press","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":40384316014707,"sku":"9.78E+12","price":36.17,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/products\/img_eef27427-132d-4aa2-b7d3-bd55aade4ae0.jpg?v=1661435194","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/products\/god-particles-9780618931828","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
