I’m not done. This book is NOT 96 pages long. More like 180.

A remarkable new collection. John Ashbery often worked in an ekphrastic way, responding to and embodying much of his verse with the art and music he so dearly loved. For much of his life he was an art critic and his reviews/essays on artists and their craft are here paired with specific poems that seem to be responses to the work he saw. Included are a number of playlists of the music he listened to while writing.
