Nancy Leavitt's beautiful calligraphy is elegantly spaced bringing life to Jean Buescher's tender words. Art critic Maureen Bloomfield has written of Ms. Buescher's work "The energy.emanates from the interval; the space between act and aftermath; desire and effect. That her poems are thus often about space and the corresponding sensation and suspension of time makes me feel as if her work is best read not in typescript but in the context of a handmade book." In this book the combination of Nancy Leavitt's art is securely intertwined with that of Jean Buescher's - making it a distinct pleasure to hold view and read. Blood Root Press unknown books
