The Lamb Cycle – What the Great English Poets Would Have Written About Mary and Her Lamb (Had They Thought of It First) - David R. Ewbank, Kate Feif

The rhyme “Mary Had a Little Lamb” told in the style—and substance—of the great English poets from Edmund Spenser to Stevie Smith.  In The Lamb Cycle, David R. Ewbank achieves the unthinkable—he writes so convincingly in the style of the great English poets that one could be lulled into thinking that Shakespeare himself was inspired to muse upon the subject of “Mary Had a Little Lamb.” Ewbank captures not only the style of each of the poets he chooses, but also their preoccupations and subject matter. So D.H. Lawrence’s Mary longs for her lamb as any woman longing for her lover, whilst T.S. Eliot’s Mary is recollected by an old man looking back on his life. Alexander Pope writes an “An Essay on Lambs,” and Tennyson’s lotus eaters become “The Clover Eater.” Brilliantly written, sophisticated, and laugh-out-loud funny, these poems, enhanced by Kate Feiffer’s charming illustrations, will enchant anyone who has ever read an English poem.

Francesca Galloway's collection, unique in concept, spans the great period of French haute couture and fashion. It includes an outstanding group by the luminary Paul Poiret and important pieces by, among others, Jeanne Lanvin, Gabrielle Chanel, Madeleine Vionnet, Sonia Delaunay, Elsa Schiaparelli, Cristobal Balenciaga, Christian Dior, Yves Saint Laurent, Paco Rabanne and Yohji Yamamoto. These garments and accessories come to life through the women who wore them. Denise Poiret-Paul's muse, collaborator and model-is the subject of a specially commissioned essay.

With an eye for design innovation, technical brilliance, and the material dialog between East and West, Galloway has assembled a collection spanning more than one hundred pieces-from evening gowns to hats and shoes. The striking imagery is the result of a collaboration between a fashion photographer, set designer and costume conservator/dresser. ... Unknown localization key: "more"
