McClatchy has addressed a topic of real interest.....I think this is a book that many painters might well read with pleasure.'--Christopher Reid, Times Literary Supplement Zusammenfassung What are poets looking at, looking for, when they walk into a room of pictures? Poets on Painters attempts to answer this question by bringing together, for the first time, essays by modern American and British poets about painting. The poets bring to their task a fresh eye and a freshened language, vivid with nuance and color and force.
