{"product_id":"odd-hour","title":"Odd Hour","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn \u003ci\u003eOdd Hour\u003c\/i\u003e, Tomas Unger creates a luminous cartography of memory and witness, where sleepwalking children navigate hotel corridors and chess players hover between move and possibility. These poems inhabit spaces in flux — airports between night and morning, museums where ancient figures still breathe, the moment before a piece touches the board — finding profound beauty in states of suspension and transition.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUnger's voice moves with equal grace through intimate family portraits and historical reckonings, from his great-grandfather's encounter with Halley's comet to the Ukrainian famine's wandering musicians. Whether capturing a tennis match that stretches past midnight or a pianist learning to play with one hand, these poems locate the sacred in the everyday and the everyday in extremity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith remarkable formal control and emotional precision, \u003ci\u003eOdd Hour\u003c\/i\u003e reveals how we orient ourselves not by what is fixed, but by what shifts — the ferry captain's reassurance in rough waters, the conductor's wild gestures against darkness, the persistence of song when all else fails. This is poetry of profound humanity and startling grace.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Itasca Books","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":54526398005523,"sku":"9781968274030","price":25.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0948\/3521\/2563\/files\/9781968274030ita_8a344e48-e5f1-46d3-b004-bd84096c6828.jpg?v=1785852746","url":"https:\/\/danuc.net\/products\/odd-hour","provider":"Danu's Wardrobe","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
