American artist Kay Rosen leads us offshore with her illustrations for this volume of the following stories, all about the sea: John Moore, 'Local Boy Makes Good'; Katherine Mansfield, 'The Voyage'; Stephen Crane, 'The Open Boat'; Isabella Bird, 'The Hawaiian Archipelago, Letter I'; John Aaron Rosen, 'Stranger In The Empty Night'; Eileen Myles, 'Everyday Barf'. Kay Rosen has been exploring the possibilities of words as images for over 25 years. She delights in the small shift; the subtle change that subverts meaning and reveals the unexpected.
