The publisher's webpage does not show the ISBN, which we need to check/verify...
Hi there, The ISBN is 9781068741104. While this doesn't appear on the publisher's site, it does appear on this bookseller site here: https://bookshelf.co.za/BookDetails/i...
Hopefully this helps!
With best wishes,
Dan

Hi Dan, we appreciate your patience as we work through the tremendous backlog. The website you've given is a bookseller and not an accepted source to add data to the Goodreads database. We need a webpage showing the ISBN/ASIN and other book data to validate the info and if available we need it for the cover image. It should be non-bookseller site (Amazon & AbeBooks excepted), so from the publisher, library or another acceptable site: https://help.goodreads.com/s/article/..., if you have the book, we can use a scan/photo of your copy for the cover and the page with the publication information (you can upload a scan/photo of your own to the "more photos..." section of your profile (https://www.goodreads.com/photo/new) in the browser, not the app), then copy the link here and a librarian can add it. Make sure you state the source of the photo in the text and that your account settings are public (not private).
Kindly change this topic's title, showing the title of the requested book as the subject. This facilitates the sorting on language.
Archiving due to non-response. You are welcome to add a new request if you'd still like this book to be added. Don't reply to this post as once it's archived it's unlikely to be read by a librarian.
* Title: Some Sun

* ISBN (or ASIN): 9781068741104

* Description: For some years, Daniel Feinberg’s poetry has been a secret worth keeping. Part of a generation of poets that includes Ariana Reines, Jon Leon, David Berman and Dan Hoy, the author of several impossible to obtain chapbooks, the artist’s books Bora Bora Bora (2015) and To Life (2018), editor of the iconic short-lived poetry magazine Soft Targets, his work has proven quietly yet distinctly influential.
Psychedelic and real, elegiac and hopeful, the poems collected in Some Sun take the author’s home of Marseille as a subject to venerate and fantasise with – this is Marseille in the afterlight of Miami, the scene of life-changing sunsets, Jewish mysticism and Afrofuturism, Rimbaud and Claude McKay, the invention of the bikini, an endlessly scrolling sea – a place where a poet can be a family man: “my family just happens to be jazz / nightclubs on a Japanese colonized Mars / in 2075.”
Poetry is validated as the great reconfigurer of emotion and perception, a sort of cryptocurrency, an evil order where a rhyme is true, wildflowers are woke, and it routinely storms indoors. Fluorescent, anti-authority, a little wasted, the book stakes everything on the old money of beauty, transformation, magic and syntax, unending love. “Claro the misery to mystery”, the poet says, and whether he means Floridian oblivion or thick Paris shade, if you hang around the light can change everything. Is it what you wanted? “Some sun / some don’t.”
