Meditations [Paperback]

Neil Cohn (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: February 17, 2006

Meditations collects diverse and often experimental visual poems, short stories, and vignettes that push the boundaries of sequential art. These works tread a journey of artistic exploration into philosophy, love, childhood, and the medium of visual language to form a collection that defies placement in traditional categories of literature. They are a voyage into the imagination and the possibilities of words and pictures.
