My love of Ekphrastic poetry combined with my love of Vincent Van Gogh … what a collection to read! Catherine captures the essence of his painting in a skilled display itself of poetry in different forms: free verse, sonnets, haiku, all bringing in the colours the painter loved to use. But there’s also the care taken to be sympathetic to the man himself in the troubled life of the genius he was. I love this book.
