About this title

Synopsis:

This book is universal in its approach and its appeal. Carolyn Askar's poems move beyond the personal in their questionings and affirmations. The paintings and drawings have a special relationship with the poems. They were chosen from the work of five artists to enhance the reader's response to the inner vision of the poetry. This vision "expresses a simple and unshakeable truth, a reverence for life."

"Carolyn Askar's remarkable collection is exhilerating, bewitching and inspiring. A book about Love in its truest sense."
ROBERT POWELL

"One word is all that is needed to describe this book, that is: beautiful."
SPIKE MILLIGAN
