Memoir of Love and Art: Honey in the Blood Susan Blanshard

Here is written proof that true love can and does exist in a lifetime. A rare and compelling love story. Memoir of Love And Art, is a reflective personal memoir sensually charged with passages of exquisite prose. What emerges are episodic memories rich in love, art, loss, fortune, and fate. A sensual journey, where narrative, language and emotion are depicted with great passion and reflection. This non-fiction work evokes a realism of places traveled: the West Coast of Aotearoa New Zealand, the countryside of South West France, the tropical coast of Australia and the city of Hanoi, Vietnam. These pages reveal the passionate love between a poet and an artist. This beautiful and powerful impressionistic collage uses creative license with facts. And so contributes to the autobiographical narrative as a whole. In the form of impressionistically written memoirs, the narration is poetic and non-linear. The sensuality of the poetic sinks slowly into your skin.
