Recensioner i media

A stunning ode to nature poetry. . . . Peters employs a wide variety of artistic styles and media, reflecting varied themes of connectedness to nature, including celebration, grief, and love. . . . The thoughtful execution infuses the verses with new meaning and lends itself to rich discussion. —Kirkus ReviewsAcclaim for Poems to See By:Comics artist Julian Peters performs a sleight-of-paintbrush, as it were, with an array of powerful verses. . . . Mr. Peters writes that his motivation for translating great poetry into the visual language of comics was ‘for love of beauty.’ In this he has undoubtedly succeeded; reading Poems to See By is a stirring experience. —The Wall Street Journal By creating interesting juxtapositions of text, imagery, and illustration style, cartoonist Peters elevates each of the 24 visualizations of classic poems here into something much more interesting than mere translation. . . . Peters’s virtuosity as an illustrator and keen understanding of the texts included here results in a beautiful, memorable volume. —Library Journal
