{"product_id":"9780143126904","title":"It Shouldn't Have Been Beautiful (Penguin Poets)","description":"\u003cp\u003eA powerful new collection from poet, essayist, and frequent New Yorker contributor Lia Purpura  Lia Purpura has won national acclaim as both a poet and an essayist. The exquisitely rendered poems in this, her fourth collection, reach back to an early affinity for proverbs and riddles and the proto-poetry found in those forms. Taking on epic subjects-time and memory, metamorphosis and indeterminacy, the complicated nature of beauty, wordless states of being-each poem explores a bright, crisp, singular moment of awareness or shock or revelation.  Purpura reminds us that short poems, never merely brief nor fragmentary, can transcend their size, like small dogs, espresso, a drop of mercury.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Penguin USA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45374076682319,"sku":"00000_00000_00000_00000","price":980.0,"currency_code":"TWD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0672\/9174\/2287\/files\/9780143126904-1.jpg?v=1780181732","url":"https:\/\/kinokuniya.com.tw\/products\/9780143126904","provider":"Books Kinokuniya Taiwan","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
