Navigating the paradox between spiritual emptiness and the irreducible particulars of the world-lost teeth and dynamited buddhas, pelicans low against the cold sea, a child's sunrise lifted on butter and milk-these spare, precise poems move between Zen practice, motherhood, and the mystery of everyday perception with utter clarity. Both incantatory and quietly vernacular, \u003cem\u003eMy Uppalavanna\u003c\/em\u003e is an astonishing first collection.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lavender Ink","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48209965645975,"sku":"9781956921809","price":1830.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781956921809.webp?v=1788714750","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/my-uppalavanna-9781956921809","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
