Profound Observations,
By Cleve D. Nay (Kew Gardens, NY USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Kew Gardens (Hardcover)
The art of Virginia Woolf gathers in this small yet profoundly moving observation of the cycle of life. A garden in July becomes a canvas upon which Woolf paints a new and haunting picture of her intricate perspective. Flowers seem more like immense stained glass windows from the vantage point of the snail making its way through a flower bed. Minute clips of towering passersby illustrate the human experience where so much is anything but what it appears to be on the surface. The flower bed magically transforms through the hypnotic prose becoming an endless landscape of challenge, yet more importantly a sacred cathedral wherein the vulnerable snail, a methaphor for the individual, carefully negotiates life inside the surrounding looming beauty. This story crys to be read out loud, and when it is, it shines and verifies the genius of its conception.
