With precise, vivid detail they explore the complex sweetness and nostalgia along with the grim realities for peasants and the coming collapse of the feudal order. Tony Whedon takes us inside and back out for the long view of an era at the cusp of our modern world.-David Cavanagh, author of Straddle and Cycling in Plato's Cave**In these twelve poems Tony Whedon, along with the Limbourg brothers of the early 15th century, gives us a world-one both bounded and boundless. Whedon's imaginative associations are as dazzling as the colors of the miniatures themselves. Both the elegant lightness and the earthiness of the Limbourgs' artistry are reflected in these poems. Beyond brocaded nobility, beyond agrarian quaintness, the richness of Whedon's poetry can convince you that the world of the paintings is one in which we still live.-Judith Yarnall, Author of The Transformations of Circe\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 36\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.09 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e August 21, 2017\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53377641087283,"sku":"9781944388300","price":20.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/ckj2RXtPuM9781944388300.webp?v=1779326016","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/products\/les-tres-riches-heures-poems-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
