{"product_id":"eagle-pond-isbn-9780618839346","title":"Eagle Pond","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis original paperback brings together for the first time all of Donald Hall’s writing on Eagle Pond Farm, his ancestral home in New Hampshire, where he visited his grandparents as a young boy and then lived with his wife, the poet Jane Kenyon, until her death. It includes the entire, previously published Seasons at Eagle Pond and Here at Eagle Pond; the poem “Daylilies on the Hill” from The Painted Bed; and several uncollected pieces. In these tender essays, Hall tells of the joys and quiddities of life on the farm, the pleasures and discomforts of a world in which the year has four seasons -- maple sugar, blackfly, Red Sox, and winter. Lyrical, comic, and elegaic, they sing of a landscape and culture that are disappearing under the assault of change.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn prose as clear as pond ice and as warm as a Glenwood stove, this landmark collection reveals:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eFour Seasons on the Farm:\u003c\/b\u003e Not just spring, summer, fall, and winter, but the true New England calendar of maple sugar, blackfly, Red Sox, and the long, deep quiet of the cold.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eAn Ancestral Home:\u003c\/b\u003e The story of a place bought in 1865, where generations of a family lived, worked, and left their mark, from forgotten tools in the back chamber to the poet’s own rekindled fire.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eA Poet’s Prose:\u003c\/b\u003e Lyrical, comic, and elegiac essays that capture the small moments and deep truths of a life lived in observance of the land and its history.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eLife with Jane Kenyon:\u003c\/b\u003e A tender, unsentimental portrait of a shared life of work, love, and poetry on the farm Hall and his wife, the poet Jane Kenyon, called home.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Ecco","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44890229244133,"sku":"NP9780618839346","price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1842\/7735\/files\/9780618839346.jpg?v=1730232816","url":"https:\/\/k12savings.com\/es\/products\/eagle-pond-isbn-9780618839346","provider":"K12savings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
