These texts are fun, funny, moving, melancholic and full of games, Ruefle's voice and style enacting a playful magic that allows us to query art and ourselves in equal measure. Bringing together for the first time three of Mary Ruefle's collections of prose - \u003cem\u003eThe Most of It\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eMy Private Property\u003c\/em\u003e and \u003cem\u003eThe Book \u003c\/em\u003e- \u003cem\u003eGolden Crumbs\u003c\/em\u003e is a first UK publication for one of America's greatest living poets and essayists. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ruefle, Mary","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58895424160118,"sku":"9781804272824","price":14.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1208\/4146\/files\/9781804272824.jpg?v=1791197454","url":"https:\/\/chepstowbooks.co.uk\/products\/9781804272824","provider":"Chepstow Books \u0026 Gifts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
