Produktbeschreibung
In the early, befuddling decades of the 21st century, we yearn for a mentor and guide: Someone adventuresome and wise yet relatable. Someone who has lived fully, with courage and yes, with love. Martha Talburt is such a navigator. A Bridge Not a Wall, her delightful, brave hybrid of art, poetry, and memoir, is the handbook for our times. Talburt leads us around the world -- from the suburban landscapes of family to the top of Mt. Kilimanjaro, with much wonder and joy in between. Nestled in the mix are moments of humor, tenderness, and loss as well as the fierce knowledge gained from those experiences. It's been said that some follow maps, while others create them. I think there's another kind of mapmaker -- that remarkable dreamer who shows us how to walk our own path. Martha Talburt has traveled through 80-plus years with an open, expansive heart. Her book is an extraordinary gift to family, to us all, that we might take up the journey, with a constellation of poems, reflections and artworks guiding us along the way. -- Pamela Hart, author of the award-winning collection, Mothers Over Nangarhar

Autorenporträt
Martha Talburt is a well-known artist and teacher who has taught art and poetry for many years. Semi-retired now, she lives in Ridgefield, Connecticut, with her dog, Zoey, near some of her large family. Trained at the Art Students League in New York where she specialized in portraiture, Martha has created portrait drawings of subjects all over the world. In addition to visual art, poems are her passion, and she has been writing them for as long as she can remember. The phrase, "A face is a poem the soul writes," blends her two passions. This is her second book.
