Flowers & Fables

Abstract

This is a book of strong fantasy and surrealist art. Would it be taboo to call it feminine fantasy, even though it is here expressed by two men? Fourteen flowers give rise to Magritte-like paintings and lush, imaginative prose heavy on image and feeling. For typical paintings, I recommend Marsh Mallow, Poppy, and Tulip. Though there is nothing here of fable in the sense I am pursuing, I appreciate this book much more than I thought I would.
