{ "item_title" : "Shade Is a Place", "item_author" : [" Makshya Tolbert "], "item_description" : "From National Poetry Series winner MaKshya Tolbert, a startlingly original debut (Maggie Millner) that meanders toward possibilities of arboreal relief among entanglements of place, property, and urban planning in Charlottesville, Virginia Shade is a place meanders east-west along Charlottesville's Downtown Mall, seeking a Black sense of place at the pace of stressed shade and street trees, the mall's architectural history, and the speaker's ongoing questions and reflections. The collection of poems is a moving invitation to open one's attention by looking up, down, and always within. Through lyric walking poems (tree walks and shade walks) and Bashō-style travelogue, Shade is a place unfolds as much through arboreal life as through one's inner life--sometimes alone, sometimes with others, and always among turning trees.", "item_img_path" : "https://covers2.booksamillion.com/covers/bam/0/14/313/845/0143138456_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" : "" } }
