A Bouquet of Vellum - Paperback

by Jo Pellinore (Author)

What is poetry but an offering of the poet's soul?

A Bouquet of Vellum meditates on the violent and passionate nature of poetic composition. In resplendent imagery and imagination, Jo Pellinore offers the sacrifice of her feminine grief, pain, and desire in stanzas arranged like the earth's strata or stems in a bouquet. Pellinore's refurbished nineteenth-century style and modern form allow for space to ponder those who came before and how we may pay homage to their literary efforts.

This collection is best enjoyed with a soothing cup of tea (or coffee) and your favorite book of poetry nearby. It does not exist in isolation from the art you love.
