The world is always in motion and it is also full of risk.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn such a world, how should one proceed? Throughout \u003ci\u003eSharks in the Rivers\u003c\/i\u003e, Limón suggests that we must cleave to the world as it 'keep[s] opening before us,' for, if we pay attention, we can be one with its complex, ephemeral, and beautiful strangeness. Loss is perpetual, and each person's mouth 'is the same \/ mouth as everyone's, all trying to say the same thing.' For Limón, it's the saying—individual and collective—that transforms each of us into 'a wound overcome by wonder,' that allows 'the wind itself' to be our 'own wild whisper'.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Hachette Aotearoa New Zealand","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47427780247788,"sku":"9781472159977","price":27.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/9781472159977.jpg?v=1774767306","url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/products\/sharks-in-the-rivers-by-ada-limon-9781472159977","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
