A Matter of Blue
A Matter of Blue is the first time Jean-Michel Maulpoix's poems have appeared in a full-length collection in English and French. This book has already gone through multiple printings in France. It is Maulpoix's most critically and commercially successful book. Maulpoix is active as an editor, visual artist, critic, and essayist and has his own web site - www.maulpoix.net - which will draw readers to this collection. We will link BOA's web site to Maulpoix's.
