Awarded the Michael L. Printz Honor Award for Excellence in Young Adult Literature, Heart to Heart: New Poems Inspired by Twentieth-Century American Art offers an original way to approach poetry and art—with works by distinguished American poets, specially commissioned for this book by editor Jan Greenberg. What do we feel when we look at a great work of art? What does a poet feel? Prompted by paintings, sculpture, prints, and photographs by American artists working in the 20th century, the poems in this collection lend a new meaning to “art appreciation” and make each page of Heart to Heart an exciting discovery. Join such poets as Jane Yolen, Nancy Willard, X. J. Kennedy, Naomi Shihab Nye, David Mura, and Angela Johnson as they reveal a personal, heartfelt response to works by Thomas Hart Benton, Romare Bearden, Jacob Lawrence, Grandma Moses, Faith Ringgold, Man Ray, Georgia O’Keeffe, and many others. Whether the poems are playful, challenging, tender, mocking, humorous, sad, or sensual, each work of art, seen through the eyes of a poet, allows readers to look at the world with new insight.

Jan Greenberg is the coauthor of several books on American art and architecture and the author of many works of fiction for young readers. Her books have received many honors: ALA Notable, School Library Journal Best Book of the Year, Booklist Editor’s Choice, IRA Teacher’s Choice, Bulletin Blue Ribbon Book, and Boston Globe–Horn Book Honor Book. She lives in St. Louis, Missouri.

レビュー

  • Art+ Poetry

    Great combination of art and poems inspired by the art . A lovely book to hold and read and savor.

  • Amazing!

    An amazing work of art! The poets are well matched with the art they chose and the poems are good enough to give you chills. A must for any serious collector of contemporary poetry.

  • An o.k. book

    Let me quickly write a disclaimer that I only purchased this book to use as a required book for my daughters' course on the 20th century this coming year. I had expected a longer book covering more poetry of the 2oth century. The book does have a number of artists represented, but I would not plan to spend $13 for the book again.
