Written as a single cyclical sentence (at the end of the poem the first six lines are written again), \u003cem\u003eSunstone\u003c\/em\u003e is a tour de force of momentum. It takes as its structural basis the circular Aztec calendar, which measured the synodic period of the planet Venus (584 days--the number of lines of \u003cem\u003eSunstone\u003c\/em\u003e). But, as The New Republic noted, \"this esoteric correlative design...does not circumscribe its subject. [It is] a lyrically discursive exploration of time and memory, of erotic love, or art and writing.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 60\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.29 x 8.21 x 6.13 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e October 17, 1991\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47579313176797,"sku":"9780811211956","price":16.74,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0811\/9867\/8237\/files\/WlVmdWo1TnZ6L0lVZU1MTFdRbEVsUT09.webp?v=1773523665","url":"https:\/\/handfulofbooks.com\/products\/piedra-de-sol-sunstone-paperback","provider":"Handful of Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
