How to Paint Sunlight
Synopsis:
This collection of recent poems is graced with a short introduction by the poet in which he says, “All I ever wanted to do was to paint light on the walls of life.” For more than 50 years Ferlinghetti has been doing just that—illuminating both the everyday and the unusual, all the while keeping true to his original dictum of speaking in a way accessible to everyone. He has been, and remains, “One of our ageless radicals and true bards” (Booklist) and his voice is well-known in many places around the world. He was one of the two American poets (the other being John Ashbery) chosen to participate in the 2001 Celebration of UNESCO’s World Poetry Day in Delphi, Greece, where he along with his international confreres each poetically addressed the Oracle.
