A \u003ci\u003enew\u003c\/i\u003e singer in this present must be sighted. In this book the poet intends to say something, insofar as a poet can, about the common sadness of living and dying in the world.\" Like the blind bard of old, Grossman's Sighted Singer conjures visions both high and low, in mythopoetic resonances that excite the sorrows and the laughter of the gods and men.\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"New Directions","offers":[{"title":"How to Do Things with Tears | Allen Grossman | Paperback | 9780811214643 | Used: Very Good | Poetry 1644544","offer_id":50707976454402,"sku":"1644544","price":21.04,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0609\/3327\/5906\/files\/61C_OSbi_JL.jpg?v=1791702925","url":"https:\/\/boswellsbooks.com\/products\/how-to-do-things-with-tears","provider":"Boswell's Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
