The New Yorker has written, "Gregerson's rich aesthetic allows her best poems to resonate metaphysically." In this new volume, Linda Gregerson makes clearer than ever her passionate premise that the metaphysical only and always derives from our profound embeddedness in physical reality. From subjects as diverse as the Nazi occupation of Poland and a breakthrough discovery in cell biology, Gregerson seeks to distill "the shape of the question," the tenuous connection between knowing and suffering, between the brightness of the body and the shadows of the mind. "Choose any angle you like," she writes, "The world is split in two." One poem, "Bicameral," moves from a child's cleft palate to a gunshot wound to the hanging skeins of a fabric in a postwar art exhibit. In the wool cut from the sheep to make the materials of art, she finds a tangled record of violence and repair: "The body it becomes will ever / bind it to the human and a trail of woe." Longtime readers of Gregerson's poetry will be facinated by her departure from the supple tercets in which she has worked for nearly twenty years: Magnetic North is a bold anthology of formal experiments. It is also a heartening act of sustained attention from one of our most mindful poets.Binding Type: Paperback

Nice case for carrying keyboards
The case is perfect for carrying keyboards or other items. I am using it for an apple keyboard and trackpad.

Excellent Black Shelf Brackets for Sturdy Shelves!
Style: Black 8 Pack, Size: 7.25 inch
I recently purchased these black shelf brackets for my home office, and they have been a game-changer! The quality is outstanding, and they provided the sturdiness I needed for my shelves. I was able to create beautiful shelves effortlessly by pairing these brackets with 8" wide pine boards.
These brackets are incredibly well-made and durable. They held the weight of my books, files, and office supplies with ease, without any signs of bending or sagging. I feel confident that my items are secure and won't come crashing down.
Installation was a breeze. The brackets came with all the necessary hardware, and the instructions were clear and straightforward. Within minutes, I had my shelves up and ready to use.
This is my second pack of these brackets, and I couldn't be happier with my purchase. They are versatile, allowing me to create customized shelves that perfectly match my office decor. The sleek black finish adds a touch of elegance to the overall look.
If you're looking for high-quality and sturdy shelf brackets, I highly recommend these. They have exceeded my expectations, and I am delighted with the results. Don't hesitate to give them a try for your shelving projects!

The screws are the best part
Style: Black 6 Pack, Size: 11.25 inch, Style: Black 6 Pack, Size: 11.25 inch
OK. So I spend a lot on (and I mean A LOT) on Amazon and I never write reviews. Just not my thing. But I had to write a review for this product. These brackets are fantastic - attractive, sturdy. But what threw me was the screws - they are SUCH high quality. They don't strip or lose their black color at all even when your drill, set to 0 slip, loses grip repeatedly because you drilled the pilot hole too small and are throwing every ounce of your body weight against it to get it to drive. And they give you extra! Like, enough to mount 8.5 brackets in a 6-bracket box. I am saving alllllll of these extra screws; if I could buy them separate I would. It might seem like a small thing but hardware is usually a place companies skimp on HARD, and to be confronted with such quality was truly a breath of fresh air.
The brackets take some mounting expertise to ensure everything is true - lots of measuring and leveling (some minor differences in angle + or - a couple degrees, but they're SOLID. I will be buying these again in the future. Kudos for an awesome product.
