"Whether they address paintings, music, or literature, Jean Kreiling's ekphrastic poems read as absorbing colloquies with works of art. She beautifully shapes her language to her subjects : spare precision for a Hopper, gentle charm for a Cassatt, something more darkly portentous for Delacroix, a nice bit of bathos for Satie, and forthright passion for Cesar Frank's Symphony. Whatever her subject, the frisson of aesthetic pleasure is palpably conveyed. The book's tour de force is the series of poems on Stravinsky's Pulcinella, which is, like the piece it evokes, both cleverly delightful and delightfully clever throughout.-Dick Davis"--Page 4 of cover
