Su questo libro

L'autore:

Born Sanford Cohen in the Bronx, New York in 1934, the poet renamed himself Rosé when he began performing as a poet and storyteller in the tradition of the ultra-hip Lord Buckley, harking back to the oral roots of epic poetry. After a stint in the army, bouncing around as a lifeguard, masseur and astrology writer, he taught high school English in New York. In the early sixties he assiduously studied Classical Greek while dining on Mexican beaches, stopping in European cafés and slumming in Moroccan dives. Between a stint of acting, including the movie "The Edge," he published a book of drawings and launched skin diving trips throughout the Yucatan and the Florida Keys. His "School of the Night" specialized in occult classes and his "Liquid Wedge Gallery" made media history with sculptor Tony Price's first "Atomic Art Show" in NYC, 1969.

Dalla seconda/terza di copertina:

Born Sanford Cohen in the Bronx, New York in 1934, the poet renamed himself Rosé when he began performing as a poet and storyteller in the tradition of the ultra-hip Lord Buckley, harking back to the oral roots of epic poetry. Rosé had a variety of life experiences that led him to different jobs and educational opportunities. He performs as a stand-up poet in salons, homes, theatres, clubs, sushi bars, on radio and television in New York, LA, Miami and Santa Fe. His best known performance was at the United Nations in New York City in conjunction with an exhibit he organized and produced, “Swords into Plowshares, Tony Price: Atomic Art Exhibition.” He is the author of POETRAITS and his work has appeared in various issues of THE Magazine. “...for the engaging mind ... poetic utterances from an American master of the word. His subjects are the illusive ordinary. In the mind's eye of humor, transliterated and perfumed in the beauty of language, he renders the ordinary profound.” – Godfrey Reggio, Film Auteur and Director “We mortal humans are but specks of sand in this life but Rosé proves once more through his poetry, he incarnated as a pearl.” – Lisa Law, Photographer and Author “Rosé's poetry is so immediate and accessible...It is also hilariously close to the bone.” – Edwina Sandys, Sculptor
