Anthologically Speaking: An Anthology of Poetry & Visual Art

Anthologically Speaking is an artistic anthology meant to float on coffee tables, live on shelves within social settings and seep into the libraries of readers and listeners alike in their appreciation of penetrative compositions. This piece of literature is best described as a themed book of powerful artwork. The primary artist is a poet who regards each of her pages as a canvas with which she colorfully paints her words—illustrating heightened feelings, shared attitudes and vivid thoughts. With a belief that we are unique in experience but not in emotions nor thoughts, M. Eaux shares perspective on what she has processed firsthand, secondhand and in fantasy, yet in such a way that there is no difference between the three. This book summons deep emotions and prompts readers to sit with it regardless of it being personal or the feelings of another. Nearly every piece is complemented by visual art commissioned with creative freedom; in most cases only the poem is given as inspiration for each artist’s visual contribution. Upwards of 60 “wildly eloquent” poems are arranged into six chapters as the collection features poetry written over the course of two decades. The selections include free verse, narrative, dramatic, lyrical (mostly ballads) and new attempts of traditional poetry forms.
