Humbled by scales beyond comprehension, Stobb is  nonetheless seduced and stricken by the present in its many  manifestations. Whether dealing with family, friends, or nature, the  poems in \u003ci\u003eAbsentia\u003c\/i\u003e, with their rich emotional palette and vivid,  precise language, respond and transform, calling us to attend to the  wide skies above and inside us.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Penguin Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45571254649087,"sku":"9780143120186","price":24.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/9780143120186_s600x595.jpg?v=1777308771","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/de\/products\/9780143120186","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
