Dublin Core

Title

Essay, Bowl

Description

“I like to make some books that are widely affordable, say for the cost of a dinner and a glass of vine. Often I make a smaller version of a larger work. This is the case with this editioned version of Essay, Bowl. Bowls serve us as powerful metaphor. They may be empty or filled. They hold and sometimes spill. They signal nourishment, fellowship. My book explores this theme in imagery and text. It is a brief essay with a philosophical slant. Among other angles, my essay examines a bowl’s imaginative associates (books, houses, boats, hearts) and retells a Jewish creation myth from sixteenth century Palestine.”
