Taylor at once meditates on and observes Alpine landscapes, wind, clearings or edges of woods, an alluring hinterland, a \"soothing\" saxifrage, remains of a fire, not to mention those portholes through which he watches islands going by and, at the same time, wonders about decisive journeys that we all must take. All this poetry originally stems from the American writer's collaborative projects in different formats--\u003cem\u003elivres d'artistes, livres uniques, \u003c\/em\u003eand \u003cem\u003elivres pauvres\u003c\/em\u003e--with the French artist Caroline François-Rubino. She has stated that she \"paints what she cannot photograph.\" Similarly, Taylor writes, as it were, at various intersections of inner and outer worlds. Often the boundaries blend. He records these \"apperceptions,\" these privileged moments of awareness in which one becomes intensely and enigmatically conscious of one's own processes of thinking, feeling, or looking. What meaning can be glimpsed in such intricate sensations? In what ways do they suggest what \"aliveness\" might more deeply be, or imply? In spare, subtly haunting language that brings out the semantic resonance of certain key words, Taylor seeks what emerges \"behind the present \/ beyond \/ inside.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e--Jeremy Alden\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 124\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.29 x 8.5 x 5.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e July 01, 2017\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46241727185093,"sku":"9781941196519","price":46.03,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0757\/6718\/5605\/files\/5naOYMPJE-9781941196519.webp?v=1779137543","url":"https:\/\/selloorium.com\/products\/grassy-stairways-paperback","provider":"Selloorium","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
