Overview

Poet Nolcha Fox and Artist Mike Armstrong have known each other for over 30 years. It is only natural that this would result in an amazing collaboration. ""End of Earth - A Collaboration of Poetry and Painting"" is the result. The rich, colorful, expression art by Armstrong encouraged Fox's poetic muse to create these thought-provoking poems. Such a collaboration is like no other and, well, you must see this for yourself. It is a little book with a big WOW factor. This would make a lovely gift for art and poetry lovers. *** End of Earth, a Collaboration of Poetry and Painting, by Nolcha Fox and Mike Armstrong is ekphrastic art at its finest, a seamless coming together of vibrant brushstrokes and memorable lines in poem after poem. From ""They circle"" we have ""Ah, they are money vampires. / They tell me they can hook me up, / no, cook me up in style."" The wit, music, and metaphors that comprise Nolcha Fox's style are alive and well in End of Earth; it contains some of her best recent work. She is our contemporary Emily Dickinson, but also an original, fulfilling the potential of her poetic self in this new book. Peter Mladinic, author of House Sitting, and The Homesick Mortician *** Without a doubt, Nolcha Fox is the most interesting, inventive writer of poetry on the scene today. -- John Yamrus, author of Present Tense
