The Conjunction of the Sun and Moon: Book Two of 'the Seven Worlds' David Stuart Ryan

You are now entering the second of 'The Seven Worlds' in David Stuart Ryan's poetry series. 'The Conjunction of the Sun and Moon' explores the relationship of man and woman in startling images, poems and themes. As with his previous book, 'The Sphere of the Moon Goddess', picture and text are intimately related and create a satisfying whole describing the poetic experience. You cannot help but be taken out of the everyday into the mysterious realms that these poems inhabit. It is as much a work of art as a poetry collection. The vivid intense colours of the original illustrations take on a life of their own, by turns other worldly, erotic, elusive, beautiful and intriguing. You will appreciate this book for the ultra realistic depictions of love in all its many phases,from soaring hope to plunging despair. But be warned, this is a 'no holds barred' encounter you are about to enter. You suddenly confront life face to face, and that can be disturbing as well as inspiring. Poet David Stuart Ryan, a US award winning writer in the 'All Nations Poetry Competition' takes you out and beyond your previous boundaries. Some journeys change you forever.
