A biography-in-poems of Georgia O'Keeffe, interwoven with the
poet's lyric accounts of a solitary month in a primitive desert
cabin. A narrative-driven collection that reads like a novel, this
book delves into issues of creativity, feminism, and relationships,
while exploring turn-of-the last century New York City and the New
Mexico high desert of the 1930s and today. "Georgia O'Keeffe's
remarkable life and work inspired this poetic meditation on
everything from the pleasures and pains of love to the
transformations that time works on an individual. And just as the
artist distilled the essence of her subject matter, abstracting
from flowers and bones, landscapes and clouds, a vivid story of her
walk in the sun, so Jessica Jacobs discovers a vibrant music rooted
in portraiture. 'How little it takes/ to make home unfamiliar,' she
writes. And home in this stunning book turns out to be the entire
universe. Make yourself comfortable. There is so much to taste and
see."--Christopher Merrill, Necessities and From the Faraway
