{"product_id":"transformations","title":"Transformations","description":"The poems collected in this astonishing volume are reenactments, parodies, what Anne Sexton described as transformations, of seventeen Grimm fairy tales. Includes a Foreword by Kurt Vonnegut, Jr and Drawings by Barbara Swan.\nFeaturing: \"Snow White\" \"Rumpelstiltskin\" \"Rapunzel\" \"The Twelve Dancing Princesses\" \"The Frog Prince\" \"Red Riding Hood\"\n\"Astonishingly, they are as wholly personal as Anne Sexton's most intimate poems. Her metaphoric strength has never been greater -- really funny, among other things, a dark, dark laughter\" -C.K. Williams\n\"I asked a poet friend one time what it was that poets did, and he thought awhile and then he told me, 'They extend the language.' Anne Sexton does a deeper favor for me: she domesticates my terror, examines it and describes it, teaches it some tricks which will amuse me, then lets it gallop into my forest once more.\" — from the foreword by Kurt Vonnegut, Jr.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 061808343X\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.061808343X.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Vonnegut Jr., Kurt|Sexton, Anne\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Gently used with minimal wear on the corners and cover.
