Soulscape : A Book Of Poems

This eclectic collection of luminous, thoughtful poems represents a collaboration between two poets with very different viewpoints. Mathew Kohnen and Sufia Wright live on opposite sides of the Atlantic Ocean, but they have created a cohesive and moving work that celebrates both their similarities and differences. Kohnen, who is American, and Wright, who is British, use the power of the written word to surprise, delight, challenge, and comfort their readers. They infuse their poems with rich emotion and unforgettable vibrancy. With the help of exquisite illustrations by Teresa Cromwell, Kohnen and Wright explore the natural world, the spiritual realm, memory, and imagination. Some poems highlight the wonders of nature, like the beauty of an autumn sunset or the wondrous delicacy of a bonsai tree. Others examine the challenges of parenthood or recount fairytale visions. Kohnen and Wright also plumb the range of human feelings-for example, Wright depicts the nostalgic melancholy of New Year's Eve, and Kohnen shares vivid memories of the forts he built with childhood friends. Whether focused inward or looking outward, the poems in Soulscape will inspire you to open your eyes and appreciate what it means to be alive.
