3 Letters & Julius
by Kathryn Rantala

Description

Starting out with three poems based on letters from Virginia Woolf to Lytton Strachey, from James Agee to Father Flye, from an unknown Finn with an unpronounceable last name to Bertrand Russell,  the book moves on to a minimalist memoir centered on a house then on to a collection of short, lyrical prose pieces selected by the author, including “In Hartmann Hall,” “Im Zoologischen Garten,” “Sisters,” “Astoria Finns” and “The Ferry.”  Illustrated expressively; or, rather, illuminated by Cooper Renner.
