The interplay between the media creates a unique readingexperience that will appeal to readers of poetry and art books. Morrow’saward-winning work on Egyptian poetry and religious texts manifests here intranscriptions of hieroglyphs and accompanying ink drawings.

Water is a unique ars poetica for one of our most singular contemporary Americanvoices.
