| Art by Kim Vanderheiden. Here is just one of twelve works made by artist Kim Vanderheiden in response to a single poem from The Book of the Red King. Am I astonished? Yes, I am astonished. Where possible, readings will be accompanied by images of art-in-response by Kim, Clive Hicks-Jenkins (my longtime book-illuminator), and Mary Boxley Bullington. What a deeply touching thing to have serious artists surprise me with wonderful pictures before the book even appears from Phoenicia Publishing of Montreal, under the guidance of Elizabeth Adams, publisher of beautiful books. What a marvelous and joyful and entirely unexpected gift. The Red King approaches. The Fool is singing on his journey. And Precious Wentletrap is wandering the moon path. Pub date comes near! TBA |

The lure of the Red King

Alas, I must once again remind large numbers of Chinese salesmen and other worldwide peddlers that if they fall into the Gulf of Spam, they will be eaten by roaming Balrogs. The rest of you, lovers of grace, poetry, and horses (nod to Yeats--you do not have to be fond of horses), feel free to leave fascinating missives and curious arguments.
