{"product_id":"9781851246717","title":"Silence Please : A poem for every kind of quiet","description":"\u003cp\u003eOpening in wonder and ending in hush, this anthology invites you to slow down, breathe and listen.   Silence is hard to find in our modern world of 24\/7 news and constant messages, but here you will find 100 poems to form a treasure-house of silences. Organised into ten sections including Anatomies of Silence, Intimacy, The Natural World, The Quiet Life, Night, Loss \u0026amp; Absence and Silencings, these poems span twelve centuries, ranging from Old English works such as Beowulf and The Wanderer to recent poems by Benjamin Zephaniah, Jane Hirshfield and Sarah O. Adedeji. Familiar names  –  Shakespeare, Keats, Tennyson, Emily Dickinson, Elizabeth Barrett Browning – sit alongside less well-known writers. Each poem is presented in clear, modern language with helpful notes.   Whether you want to luxuriate in exquisite stillness, share the speechlessness of loss, laugh at awkward pauses or rest in wordless companionship, Silence Please has a poem for every kind of quiet.      \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"product__accordion accordion quick-add-hidden\"\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\u003cdetails id=\"Details-collapsible_tab_dDVEeR-template--25151688147283__main\"\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\u003csummary role=\"button\" aria-expanded=\"true\" aria-controls=\"ProductAccordion-collapsible_tab_dDVEeR-template--25151688147283__main\"\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\u003cdiv class=\"summary__title\"\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\u003ch2 class=\"h4 accordion__title inline-richtext\"\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tProduct Information\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\u003c\/h2\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003csvg class=\"icon icon-caret\" viewbox=\"0 0 10 6\"\u003e\u003cpath fill=\"currentColor\" fill-rule=\"evenodd\" d=\"M9.354.646a.5.5 0 0 0-.708 0L5 4.293 1.354.646a.5.5 0 0 0-.708.708l4 4a.5.5 0 0 0 .708 0l4-4a.5.5 0 0 0 0-.708\" clip-rule=\"evenodd\"\u003e\u003c\/path\u003e\u003c\/svg\u003e\r\n\t\t\u003c\/summary\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\u003cdiv class=\"accordion__content rte\" id=\"ProductAccordion-collapsible_tab_dDVEeR-template--25151688147283__main\"\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan class=\"metafield-multi_line_text_field\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Kate McLoughlin\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eBinding:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardback\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eDate of Publication:\u003c\/b\u003e 22\/10\/2026\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003ePagination:\u003c\/b\u003e 176 pages\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eSeries:\u003c\/b\u003e N\/A\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eImprint:\u003c\/b\u003e Bodleian Library\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003ePublished By:\u003c\/b\u003e Bodleian Library\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eBook Classification:\u003c\/b\u003e Poetry anthologies (various poets)\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/b\u003e 198 x 129\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eISBN13\/EAN\/SKU:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781851246717\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\u003c\/div\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\t\u003c\/details\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Kate McLoughlin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57006374060418,"sku":"9781851246717","price":14.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/2180\/9347\/files\/9781851246717.jpg?v=1793298739","url":"https:\/\/mountfloridabooks.com\/products\/9781851246717","provider":"Mount Florida Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
