{"product_id":"ceremony","title":"Ceremony","description":"Poetry. Winner of our 11th Annual Book Prize Contest, chosen by Matthea Harvey. CEREMONY is Mary Austin Speaker's first collection of poems. The book begins in bewilderment and ends in a hurricane of trust. In between are collaged epistles, fragmented love poems, and a litany of mutations.\n\n\"This book arrives in a shimmery white envelope, woven of strongest spider silk, impossible to open. If, however, you whisper 'yes' to it, it opens of its own accord and showers you with snow. A handbook called The New Rules of Causality in which 'hillsides follow lions' lands at your ankle, a Word Kaleidoscope rolls down the hall. Reach in to dig out the tiny boxes lodged in the far corner of the package. They are labeled 'mystery' and 'hope.'\"—Matthea Harvey\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0988522101\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.0988522101.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Speaker, Mary Austin\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: The item shows wear from consistent use, but it remains in good condition and works perfectly.
