Art Preserves What Can’t be Saved

This beautiful book by a poet who is also an artist engages the reader intellectually, emotionally, and aesthetically. Author and Editor Gabrielle Langley observes: “Carolyn Dahl brings us into a luminous world where art, theater, travel, time, and memory intersect. This is a poet’s odyssey exquisitely contained in one volume. From a pastoral landscape painted by Gainsborough to the backless-dressed young woman who flirts with an aging luminary, Dahl deftly brings us into a timeless theater of light and shadow. Hers is a surreal yet redemptive landscape, where flowers are reimagined as ‘an edible form of cherries,’ where ‘suicide snowflakes refuse to fall.’”
