Daffy Duck enters the Valley of the Eternals. Faulkner and bell-bottoms cling to beauty's evanescence. \u003cbr\u003eEven in single poems, Young's tone and style vary. No one feeling or idea takes precedence over another, and their simultaneity is frequently revealed; sadness may throw a squirrelly shadow, joy can find itself dressed in mourning black. As in the agitated \\u0022Whirlpool Suite\\u0022: \\u0022Pain \/ and pleasure are two signals carried \/ over one phoneline.\\u0022 \u003cbr\u003eIn taking up subjects as slight as the examination of a signature or a true\/false test, and as pressing as the death of friends, Young's poems embrace the duplicity of feeling, the malleability of perception, and the truth telling of wordplay.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51378348261599,"sku":"9780822958727","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0813\/8958\/4607\/files\/mL_KtxM3qJ9780822958727.webp?v=1789254462","url":"https:\/\/blackandbarhe.com\/products\/elegy-on-toy-piano-paperback","provider":"Black \u0026 Barhe Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
