Beyond Existentialism: New and Selected Poems, Black and White Photographs

by Tom Jones

I can see that many poems are strong. There is a restless energy also in the stone gardens.... I want to see this book printed. I am convinced the interesting and good stuff dominates. I think you can contribute to the awareness of stones and ice in a new way. (I am very fond of your "Black Ice".) Your photographs were wonderful.
