A compilation of the work I did during my summer as the first Artist & Writer in Residence at Old New-Gate Prison and Copper Mine in East Granby CT. Every zine comes with a #OldNewgatePoetry 1" button!
In this book you'll find:
• a nice, thorough introduction • a list of 29 powerful and poetic musings from a summer's afternoon that contemplate everything from the beauty of nature to the nature of imprisonment • 8 site-specific short poems that I wrote for visitors during ONG's grand reopening celebration (my first time doing typewriter poetry!) • 2 never before published full-length poems, one which contemplates an ore-less America, and another which recounts/explores an ONG related past life recollection shared by my husband and I (in this, our current "real" life) • 6 artistic digital interpretations of Earth Poems I wrote at the site during a daylong performance of Earth Poetry. • 7 drawings from my Graveyard Series peppered throughout the books • 1 reprinted poem inspired by a 1797 visit to the site • Signature color-splash end-pages
MORE DETAILS:
• 5"x7" hand-bound zine
• 33 pages, staple bound
• Comes packaged in a resealable poly-bag
• All orders come with a special gift and handwritten thank you note!
