Song of the Line "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." 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. |
