Donovan's observations about our \"crazy-ass\" self-involved world, emerging from her often hilarious focus on the \"vexatious anticlimax\" of our moment, are framed by a subtle exploration of Leibniz's metaphysical yet scientific Monad and Emerson's physical yet transcendental Mount Monadnock. This book is a mind-stretching tour de force, as entertaining as it is thought provoking.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn \u003cem\u003eMonad + Monadnock\u003c\/em\u003e, Karen Donovan balances a poet's concerns with those of the itinerant philosopher. Witty and esoteric, these poems - peppered with toast and pixels, deviled eggs and eternity - leap line by line from reverence to irreverence. From oak leaves to sweeping eternities, Donovan's manifold sensibility is a mysterious and exciting place to be - one where \"creation is singing\" through her poetry and equations taste \"like lace.\" -Tina Cane, author of \u003cem\u003eBody of Work\u003c\/em\u003e and \u003cem\u003eYear of the Murder Hornet\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 86\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.21 x 7 x 4.25 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e September 30, 2022\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42719467110463,"sku":"9798985620658","price":15.55,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0105\/8226\/1823\/files\/631708c779d7f09c393c2774c1e587f5.webp?v=1765085723","url":"https:\/\/dhlswag.com\/products\/monad-monadnock-paperback","provider":"BBB","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
