With Monet in Poetry and Paint the poet Michael Escoubas turns his eye for detail to the masterpieces of Claude Monet, considered to be the founder of French Impressionism. In this book Michael examines 57 paintings by Monet. Each painting is accompanied by a poem that helps the reader look deeper into Monet’s art to notice techniques and details that might otherwise be missed. More importantly Michael reveals the emotions behind the paintings. When I’m in need of a little light
I enter a Monet, one that is cheerful and bright.
I find a place along the bank
where my chin may rest upon my knees
and listen to words whispered by the breeze. The reader can’t help but glance from poem to painting and back again, noticing details and gaining insight into Monet’s genius. Monet in Poetry and Paint brings the art forms of poetry and Impressionism together in a way that enhances both. Michael serves as editor and staff book reviewer for Quill and Parchment, an online journal of cultural and literary arts. His poems have been published more than 150 times in a variety of venues. This collection of creativity is an inviting guide to explore the color and depth of Claude Monet with the rhythm and pace of poetry uniquely packaged by Michael Escoubas. On each page, this collection sets a Monet masterpiece to the voice and cadence of poetry composed by a student of the written word. - Jim Bertolet, Bloomington, IL As strongly as Monet has painted his masterpieces, Michael’s interpretation brings a new level to the art work and an understanding of how each painting has inspired him. - Annie Jenkin, Plymouth, UK This book is a soufflé of a read—light and airy but with satisfying richness that enhances the works of Claude Monet. - Jonell Kehias, Editor, Limited Magazine, Bloomington, IL
