In a joyful collaboration, poet/visual artist Fran Bull and award winning designer Yolanda Cuomo create and exuberant, visually stunning book of poetry and art. This is a volume in which the outrageous, tender, humorous, often heartbreaking spectacle of human life on planet earth is invoked in a dynamic juxtaposition of word and image. On each page, the artist's drawings and paintings interact explosively or gently with the written word. Moreover, the reader is brazenly invited to choose his or her own title for the book from among seventeen suggestions, a gesture design to inspire discernment and creativity in a spirit of play.
