    About this ebook

    IMAGINARIUM: SIGHTINGS, GALLERIES, SIGHTLINES, A. Robert Lee’s latest collection of poetry, turns on two connecting keynotes: imagination and sight. Across a broad canvas each of its sequences explores the ways we go about imagining as much as seeing reality, whether it’s the celebrated paintings of J.M.W. Turner and Frida Kahlo, a French archeological cave, the Bosphorus Straits, a major Japanese waterfall or Memphis’s Beale Street. IMAGINARIUM invited readers into a two-way exchange, imagination as seeing, seeing as imagination.
