{ "item_title" : "The Ones", "item_author" : [" Kathleen Latham "], "item_description" : "Kathleen Latham is the clear-eyed chronicler of love we all need, whether we ache from the loss of love, burn with the need for it, wonder how to survive it, or determine to hold onto it. With language that is at once accessible and compelling, she evokes for us the raw, searing, soaring moments on her journey through love, a story filled with deft humor and real-world complexity. Through the ebb and flow of The Ones, Latham offers us hard-won wisdom and a heart as big and vibrant as the ocean of love she navigates.-Cheryl Suchors, award-winning author of 48 Peaks: Hiking and Healing in the White MountainsI know I have encountered talent when the words I am reading ignite my own creativity, making me want to write with the same urgency and authenticity. Kathleen Latham's poetry collection The Ones left me spellbound. Her visceral imagery, her freewheeling confidence, assures me that the best poetry is a bridge, a means of connecting with others in the most direct way possible. Latham writes of love, its triumphs and shortfalls, in an engaging and conversational style, inviting the reader to recall her own experiences, to give them voice, to respect their impact. She helps us remember what we held close, what we thought we could never live without, but did. She writes with compassion and insight, noting how small events, in time, can become quietly magnificent, shaping our lives in ways we could not have imagined. The past, she reminds us, is always present, the door to wonder never closed. I highly recommend The Ones to anyone searching for fresh and relatable poetry.-Jean Ryan, author of Survival Skills, Lovers and Loners and the poetry collection A Day Like This", "item_img_path" : "https://covers4.booksamillion.com/covers/bam/1/63/980/659/1639806598_b.jpg", "price_data" : { "retail_price" : "20.00", "online_price" : "20.00", "our_price" : "20.00", "club_price" : "20.00", "savings_pct" : "0", "savings_amt" : "0.00", "club_savings_pct" : "0", "club_savings_amt" : "0.00", "discount_pct" : "10", "store_price" : "" } }
