In the Museum of My Daughter's Mind

Meer over het boek

Exploring the intersection of art and poetry, this collection captures the profound exchange between poet Marjorie Maddox and her artist daughter, Anna Lee Hafer, during a visit to the American Visionary Art Museum. Their reflections on joy and trauma deepen their artistic bond, while Maddox's ekphrastic poems draw inspiration from Hafer's surreal paintings and works by other artists encountered that day. The collection also features collaborative pieces, enriching the dialogue between visual and literary art.
