Poetry. A meditation on color inspired by Minoan Crete and shaped like a medieval dream poem, glossed by picture credits, acknowledgements and a table of contents. At the same time, this book is a love poem testing the language of commerce on board an Odyssean North Sea ferry, telephoned from the deck where Shakespeare's Pericles hears the music of the spheres. "FOR SILVER SEE BLUE is a poem which reaches back through history and layers of language. This journey--across water, underground, up a mountain--is charted with a keen attention to physical detail and a quiet sense of the wholeness of dispersed elements. Storhaug's playful patterning of sounds and shapes gives the text a sculpted character, and the layout embodies the act of discovery, creating both bizarre and beautiful juxtapositions. It is a warm human document which communicates depth of experience without any parade of the lyric ego"--Gavin Selerie.
