Each one is a meticulously crafted dog-crate for the untrained puppy of love.Of course these are not the first sonnets to attempt the task of wrestling a doggish passion into order. Poet Drew Pisarra joins a long line of lovers who have used the sonnet form to rebuild walls and repair roofs after a hurricane of love and loss. These sonnets are Shakespearean, in form and also spirit, in their celebration of the lustful male body, in their evocation of a dark young rival, in their hope and wonder and ultimately bitter betrayal and loss.\"These poems navigate the rapids of desire in a form that wa made for twists and turns of feeling, from the derangement of lust to rueful self-reflection. Drew Pisarra honors the Shakespearean sonnet's tradition of wit and economy, while simultaneously delivering the pleasurable shock of 2st-century idiom.\" Joan Larkin, author of \"Cold River\" (Lambda Literary Award)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Capturing Fire Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45547391123607,"sku":"9781732875913","price":864.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781732875913.webp?v=1767909888","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/infinity-standing-up-9781732875913","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
