Poems leap from war-torn cities in the Middle East, to an Oklahoma Olive Garden, a Brooklyn brownstone; from alcoholism to recovery; from a single woman to a wife. This collection summons breathtaking chaos, one that seeps into the bones of these odes, the shape of these elegies. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA vivid catalog of heartache, loneliness, love and joy, The Twenty-Ninth Year is an education in looking for home and self in the space between disparate identities.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"HarperCollins","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52929407549749,"sku":"EB_LI0500_A14-01_DUBAI","price":86.0,"currency_code":"AED","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0971\/7773\/1381\/files\/9781328511942-1.jpg?v=1789403699","url":"https:\/\/kinokuniya.ae\/products\/9781328511942","provider":"Books Kinokuniya UAE","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
