Like Leonard Cohen and Dylan Thomas had a baby who played the saxophone. We happily published those first poems and sketches, and it was the beginning of a long and beautiful collaborative friendship. Over the years, I have read his poems, movie scripts, plays and a fairytale for adults (complete with musical CD). All of them are imbued with Richard's unique and mystical, romantically spiritual voice. First and foremost, dear reader, Richard Leebrick is a poet. One whose loves, losses, joys, recoveries, transformations, and humanity dig in and find their home in your soul. And they don't let go. There's nothing 'half' about The Half-life of Desire. I invite you to fall in.\" \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e-Sarita Baker Brown\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 158\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.34 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e February 22, 2023\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42126110032007,"sku":"9798886791693","price":12.91,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0601\/2623\/2711\/files\/a4c7274645a23a6e8ba6c84882c7add1.webp?v=1732581161","url":"https:\/\/booksby.splitshops.com\/products\/the-half-life-of-desire-paperback","provider":"Books by splitShops","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
