In the faux prologue poem, 'About the Author', he stands on 'Sixth, watching ruin, with\/a handful of rain and a prophecy', a citizen of no country except the republic that gives the book its title. English here is more than a language. It is a source of divinity, and it holds a hard-won tenderness for all things living.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780143031178\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePackage Dimensions:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.5 x 5.0 x 0.3 inches\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguages:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Penguin Random House","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50120589148464,"sku":"Trans_9780143031178","price":160.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0690\/9968\/4144\/files\/71jQSCqQNLL.jpg?v=1757319841","url":"https:\/\/www.retailmaharaj.com\/products\/english-poems","provider":"Retail Maharaj","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
