Bøger af Laura Marello

Balzac's Robe and Other Poems is a chapbook whose poems are both humorous and serious. They take a careful look at a hawk on the western California coastline, at a "clean room," at love and loss, at a ribald dinner party, and other quirky encounters. These poems are a selected from the poems Marello wrote over a span of twenty-five years, from the 1990s to the present.

Matisse: The Only Blue interweaves scenes from the second half of artist Henri Matisse's life in the south of France (1907-1954), with reflections on his artwork. The work explores: artistic creation and community, love and betrayal, landscape, home and exile, family, and war. It portrays an eclectic mix of artists, dancers, models, gallery owners, art patrons, friends and family members, struggling through the upheavals of the first half of Twentieth Century, culminating in the devastating realities of two world wars and the economic collapse wedged in between.
