His story unfolds over his 30-year correspondence with a young poet, and it is a story of lost moral compass, in which artistic integrity is traded for commercial success, and friendship and fidelity fall to lust and greed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eJames Baker Hall \u003c\/b\u003eis currently the Poet Laureate of Kentucky.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 137\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.45 x 9.5 x 6.14 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e October 01, 2002\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51770052477216,"sku":"9781889330792","price":12.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9764\/5344\/files\/a8f690a0bdb409696092db6bc1ee8ff3.webp?v=1780363406","url":"https:\/\/ebocreations.com\/products\/praeders-letters-paperback","provider":"The E-Book Oasis LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
