Side by Side: New Poems Inspired by Art from Around the World

From the winner of the Michael L. Printz Honor Award comes a poetry anthology inspired by poets and artists from around the globe. In the groundbreaking tradition of Heart to Heart, this collection examines the connections between an artist’s work and a poet’s response, putting the artist and poet literally on the same page. With an English translation accompanying each poem in its original language, this is a novel, illuminating way to discover poetry and art together. The poems, most published or translated for the first time in the United States, are surprising and engaging, helping us see art from a fresh perspective.
