{"product_id":"twofold","title":"twofold","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe poet Charles Simic wrote, “Short poems: be brief and tell us everything.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEdward Carson’s extraordinary new work gathers concise diptych – or twofold – poems exploring themes of love, relationships, myth, art, language, math, physics, geometry, and artificial intelligence. Within the two sections of \u003cem\u003etwofold\u003c\/em\u003e, “dialogues” and “binaries,” the form of the diptych shapes language and meaning as paired poems engage each other across the margins of facing pages. Caroline Bem, author of A Moveable Form, writes: “The diptych, you see, is beautiful. It is symmetry and difference, doubling and mirroring, binarism and seriality. It is the form of paradox, both open and closed, free and contained.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNegotiating surprising twinning combinations, comparisons, and outcomes, the poems in \u003cem\u003etwofold\u003c\/em\u003e are lively, thought-provoking, and playful interchanges that are also mischievously literate, questioning, and intuitive.\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"Edward Carson","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43576098062518,"sku":"9780228020097","price":15.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0251\/4980\/0541\/files\/9780228020097_facbc6fb-186c-4e70-b57a-1081f5bf9b19.jpg?v=1726253586","url":"https:\/\/combined-academic.myshopify.com\/products\/twofold","provider":"Combined Academic Publishers - Mare Nostrum Group","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
