{"product_id":"armour","title":"Armour","description":"\u003cp\u003eWith \u003ci\u003eArmour\u003c\/i\u003e, the great Australian poet John Kinsella has written his most spiritual work to date - and his most politically engaged. The world in which these poems unfold is strangely poised between the material and the immaterial, and everything which enters it - kestrel and fox, moth and almond - does so illuminated by its own vivid presence: the impression is less a poet honouring his subjects than uncannily inhabiting them. Elsewhere we find a poetry of lyric protest, as Kinsella scrutinizes the equivocal place of the human within this natural landscape, both as tenant and self-appointed steward. \u003ci\u003eArmour\u003c\/i\u003e is a beautifully various work, one of sharp ecological and social critique - but also one of meticulous invocation and quiet astonishment, whose atmosphere will haunt the reader long after they close the book.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePraise for John Kinsella:\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e'Kinsella's poems are a very rare feat: they are narratives of feeling. Vivid sight - of landscapes, of animals, of human forms in distant light - becomes insight. There is, often, the shock of the new. But somehow awaited, even familiar. Which is the homecoming of a true poet' George Steiner\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pan Macmillan","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47499992039649,"sku":null,"price":481.25,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0779\/9033\/0593\/files\/18172463482305.jpg?v=1763760207","url":"https:\/\/perfectbookhouse.com\/products\/armour","provider":"PERFECT BOOK HOUSE","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
