{"product_id":"9780988384422","title":"Fieldguide, Essays And Stories","description":"Acting as himself in his essays and as various protagonists in his stories, the author shows us a hunger for a vanished world of natural splendor and ideal love. The essays are persuasively strong, rising to a thematic climax in the powerfully reasoned \"Environmentalist as Misanthrope.\" As for the matching antiphonal stories, they delight with their surprise endings and several-\"The Swimmer,\" \"The Bright Side,\" \"Assassinations\" -may best be described as small masterpieces. Both the essays and stories that comprise Field Guide share a feature I call \"page richness,\" a literary quality that causes the reader to savor certain pages before continuing toward the conclusion, as one might pause on a long journey to enjoy especially appealing vistas. Writers either have this ability or they don't. Steve Sherwood has it. 9780988384422 0988384426 159 BOOK  NOT_MATURE http:\/\/books.google.com\/books\/content?id=1QesoAEACAAJ\u0026amp;printsec=frontcover\u0026amp;img=1\u0026amp;zoom=5\u0026amp;source=gbs_api en\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eAuthor: \u003c\/b\u003eSteve Sherwood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003ePublisher: \u003c\/b\u003eAngelina River Press\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003ePublication Date: \u003c\/b\u003eApr 11, 2014\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eNumber of Pages: \u003c\/b\u003e159 pages\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eLanguage: \u003c\/b\u003eEnglish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eBinding: \u003c\/b\u003ePaperback\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eISBN-10: \u003c\/b\u003e0988384426\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eISBN-13: \u003c\/b\u003e9780988384422\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Angelina River Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48798443372849,"sku":"9780988384422","price":18.09,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0798\/8215\/8385\/files\/9780988384422.jpg?v=1712826391","url":"https:\/\/www.recomparo.com\/products\/9780988384422","provider":"ReComparo.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
