“Offers a truly creative approach to reading O’Keeffe in the artist’s own stylistic terms. . . . Like getting to take a ride aboard O’Keeffe’s creative mind.”—Panhandle-Plains Historical Review
“Inspired by the great modernist O’Keeffe, Sinor’s essays are also original and modern: strange and poetic, sensual and provocative, and at times, heartbreaking.”—Karen Karbo, author of How Georgia Became O’Keeffe: Lessons on the Art of Living
“Jennifer Sinor approaches the intimacy of letter writing as a poet, scholar, detective, and practitioner of the art form, showing just how vast epistolary space-time can be. She reveals how O’Keeffe’s art-life continuum teaches us all to see and love more wondrously, wholly, and passionately.”—Lia Purpura, author of On Looking: Essays
“With the precision and grace of a poet, and with a welcome authenticity rare these days, Sinor writes a hybrid book of memoir, cultural commentary, biography, anthology. Even those with no special interest in American modernism in general, or O’Keeffe in particular, will find here a world of wide wonder, from the black and lit places of the heart, from painted canyons to far-flung shores.”—Christopher Cokinos, author of The Fallen Sky: An Intimate History of Shooting Stars and Bodies, of the Holocene
