I like the photos.<br /><br />Something I noticed, that struck me about the photo of Anne Sexton, that I hadn't noticed when I've seen the image before, is how long her hands are.Lyle Daggetthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10731915540520704368noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37627577.post-46319514347779122222009-08-26T20:42:49.622-07:002009-08-26T20:42:49.622-07:00Kelli:

It's a collection of Arthur Furst photos he took of her at various visits during that last summer of her life. It's a wonderfully illuminating book of my new <i>Dead Poet Mentor.</i> ;)Michael A.

I have a photo book of poets that I had to take out once I saw your comments. <br /><br />Love the Anne Sexton photo. One of my long-term projects is to write a screenplay about her.Januaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13036651950996873368noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37627577.post-66625907985270975582009-08-26T13:48:20.952-07:002009-08-26T13:48:20.952-07:00Oh, wow!

I always liked to read writers' biographies, just to get an idea of who they really are and now I realize that a photo like the ones you show here can do just that. <br /><br />They do look natural, like they belong in their space and the space belongs to them. <br /><br />I especially love the Edna St. Vincent Millay photo and how indeed, it doesn't look posed when it almost feels like it should.<br /><br />I know what you mean know about good photos.<br /><br />And oh yeah, I'll definitely hang around here very often.Lorihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17708851895104018255noreply@blogger.com
