Before Life Hurries On Sabra Field & Jenepher Lingelbach |
Before Life Hurries On is a book of poetry and images that "celebrates special natural places, for their beauty and for their healing of the human spirit." The poet, Jenepher Lingelbach, and the illustrator, Sabra Field, were friends and neighbors in East Barnard, Vermont. After collaborating on the cover for a Christmas Eve church program, they decided to collaborate on a project that would portray different times of the day, seasons, nearby sights, and different views.
In the book, each poem, "Mountain Top," "Waterfall," or "November Fog" is paired with an original woodcut. Notes at the back of the book explain the experiences that inspired the words and images and enhance the pleasure of re-reading and revisiting this beautiful full-color book.
