Lending Color to the Otherwise Absurd by Emily Thornton Calvo

"Lending Color to the Otherwise Absurd" is a collection of poems and paintings that incorporate the poems into the art--both art and poetry are the works of the author. Subjects reflect insights into family, travel, politics and abstract concepts. There's humor, wisdom and adventure interpreted both visually and verbally. Calvo's two cancer diagnoses also inspire opportunities for reflection. Overall, the book invites readers to look at life differently; to take life's absurdities, turn them upside down and move on a little stronger. Long eBook Description
