The words we choose for nature are 'vital for living at one with the elements'. A relationship can bow under the strain of 'a lifetime's freight of words said and regretted.' \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWords spoken and heard implant themselves for ever: 'To hell with men, let's devote our lives to words', is a fragment of a conversation with Sylvia Plath. Meanwhile words spoken years ago resurface: 'that's not for the likes of you'. These poems are about the lifetime endeavour of 'trying to learn the impossible language'.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 46\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.1 x 7.81 x 5.06 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e September 01, 2020\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46242200027271,"sku":"9781910981115","price":10.78,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0601\/2623\/2711\/files\/HdXvBRbrEz9781910981115.webp?v=1792435829","url":"https:\/\/booksby.splitshops.com\/products\/nothing-but-words-paperback-1","provider":"Books by splitShops","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
