A study by Rodin of the dancer Little Hanako-titled Head of Sorrow-triggers in the young woman recognition of her mother, a mother erased from her life since childhood.Thus begins Eleanor Chais Standing Water, one of the most remarkable first books of poetry in recent years. It is a journey into the past as well as the present-into the narrative hidden from the poet since birth, as well as the strategies that she has adopted to survive. It is a journey about how we learn to cope with, to perceive and describe, the world. It is a story about savage privilege and deprivation.Haunting the whole is the figure of the real Little Hanako-Rodins model, a Japanese artist displaced in Europe, the medium through which other artists dream and discover the world.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51819282268448,"sku":"NEW0374536864","price":12.7,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/81PvSVB-1BL.jpg?v=1781129291","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/standing-water-0374536864","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
