Description

"Gaspar Orozco's extraordinary Book of the Peony blew me away by a storm of quiet flame and blackness and nothing everythingness. I am writing this from Pont-Aven, where I have come to write about colonies and gatherings of artists, before regaining (what an inapproprié word, ) and suddenly this poetry hits me in the Breton chill with--I can't say what--a dark blaze when I expected I have no idea what?

This remarkable poetry brings the long ago into nowness, if I can put it like that. It lights from far and also near, burning." --Mary Ann Caws
