{"product_id":"9780997851700","title":"Snapshots: An On-Growing Collection Of Poems","description":"Dear Readers, At the genesis of this chapbook, I set out to write poems about things that were actually worth writing about. So I picked up a pen, some napkins, and started jotting words. I opened my eyes, ears, hands, and heart. And after picking up a laptop to compile it all, I found that this, my first book of poems, was about love and loss. I write to capture moments of love as they truly are: broken, fleeting, sinful and painful, yet still beautiful. I write with the resolve that such snapshots matter, for if they do not, what does? I write about stories full of culture \u0026amp; family, privilege \u0026amp; struggle, faith \u0026amp; doubt, power \u0026amp; weakness. Stories that take place in Oakland, DF, UCLA, East San Jose, Linda Vista, and Nicaragua. I write about things and places that have been dynamic in the past year. I write in the USA in a time when it is grappling to understand itself as its culture changes with eagle speed.... Sincerely, Sam.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eAuthor: \u003c\/b\u003eSam Ricky West\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003ePublisher: \u003c\/b\u003eSam Ricky West\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003ePublication Date: \u003c\/b\u003eJul 18, 2016\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eNumber of Pages: \u003c\/b\u003e28 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\u003e0997851708\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eISBN-13: \u003c\/b\u003e9780997851700\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"NA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49226670571825,"sku":"9780997851700","price":13.26,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0798\/8215\/8385\/files\/9780997851700__20693_2b9e7e13-ca45-42b7-8a07-b9be1c755e54.jpg?v=1717076330","url":"https:\/\/www.recomparo.com\/products\/9780997851700","provider":"ReComparo.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
