Summary
"My Studio is a wide-ranging collection in which the author examines a host of topics; some are unextraordinary (the satisfaction one derives from the completion of a task) while others are deep and poignant (mental illness and homelessness). Major frequently uses art--his own paintings or the work of celebrated artists--as entry points into many of his poems. Allusions to light, color, and composition fill this collection as do quirky one-liners ("[beavers are] known to complain a lot") and references to fairy tales and nursery rhymes"--Provided by publisher.
