"If art proves anything, one might say that this collection proves that art is fun, eccentricity abounds, love is complicated, good things exist. Henryk and Jack are artists in the school of Duerer and Horace."
--Annie Dillard, from her introduction

This 112 page collaborative book features over eighty of Jack's poems--written over the last twenty years--as well as engravings Henryk completed this past winter in response to his readings of Jack's work.

 

Jack G. Gilbert [1934-2019] lived with his wife on a self-built flower farm in Orange County, North Carolina. In another life, he taught English literature at LSU  before retiring at age 46 to lead a simpler life--building, gardening, baking bread, writing poetry.
