Bridge of Love

Author: Christine Palamidessi

Browse the book

An artist book humbly made and shared for two purposes: first, to shed light on the circumstances and characters of people who immigrate to the United States; secondly, to present the particular love and hope of my grandparents, who had no intention of staying in the New World, but who, because of children born and accidents not chronicled in this small story of their big lives, chose to become American citizens. I generated text from the letters they wrote to each other and from historical events between 1918 and 1920. The images that illustrate the pages are collages made from clips of dramatic paintings, news articles and photos that were created during the time between World Wars.

The Optimistic Goldfish

Steve Wickens

This is my first brand new collection of poems for many years. It was refreshing for me to write new poetry without having to rely on my past work. There are 30 poems in all and are arguably lighter than what I wrote previously. Of course my thoughts about self worth and religion are still present in my writing, but there are several light poems that just reflect silliness and hopefully will create smiles. Poetry is a wondrous thing because it is a form of writing that can attract debates and discussion. It depends on the interpretation. These new poems are a gift to myself. I hope you enjoy them.
