Pages : 83
Book Description
There’s an empty yellow picture frame That hangs on the wall where the curtains fold... And if I open the window wide enough, The sunlight makes it look like gold.

Whether it is the ever-changing ‘Kaleidoscope’of life, the rapture evoked by nature in ‘The Water Lilies’, the little cherished piece of childhood in ‘Granny’, the bittersweet love in ‘The Perfect Fools’, the power of literature in ‘The Storyteller’ or the ray of hope in ‘Serendipity’, each poem will touch a chord deep inside. This book will leave you with the same warmth as having a kindred soul walk with you awhile.

Monet's Water Lilies
Author: Vivian Russell
Publisher: Frances Lincoln
ISBN: 9780711232310
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
'It took me a long time to understand my water lilies,' Monet wrote of his pond at Giverny. 'I had planted them for the pure pleasure of it, and I grew them without thinking of painting them...And then, all of a sudden, I had the revelation of the enchantment of my pond. I took up my palette. Since then I've had no other model.' The pond became Monet's most enduring motif, the water lilies the most celebrated flowers he ever painted. This book tells the story of their role as a central source of artistic inspiration, bringing exciting insights into Monet's work as a gardener and painter. Vivian Russell also describes the making of the water garden which, in contrast to the flower garden, was to be meditative and mysterious, in tune with the Japanese aesthetic. She reveals how Monet chose his water lilies from plants bred specially by Joseph Bory Latour-Marliac at his nursery near Bordeaux. Her superb photographs capturing the ephemeral beauty of the flowers, and the way they appear to float on clouds and undulating rushes, portray the changing moods of the pond, complementing Monet's own serene poems to light.

Pale Colors in a Tall Field
Author: Carl Phillips
Publisher: Farrar, Straus and Giroux
ISBN: 0374721424
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 57
Book Description
A powerful, inventive collection from one of America’s most critically acclaimed poets. Carl Phillips’s new poetry collection, Pale Colors in a Tall Field, is a meditation on the intimacies of thought and body as forms of resistance. The poems are both timeless and timely, asking how we can ever truly know ourselves in the face of our own remembering and inevitable forgetting. Here, the poems metaphorically argue that memory is made up of various colors, with those most prominent moments in a life seeming more vivid, though the paler colors are never truly forgotten. The poems in Pale Colors in a Tall Field approach their points of view kaleidoscopically, enacting the self’s multiplicity and the difficult shifts required as our lives, in turn, shift. This is one of Phillips’s most tender, dynamic, and startling books yet.
