Body, Vessel and Sea of Self - Paperback

by Wendy J. Johnson (Editor), Abigail Rorer (Illustrator), Joseph a. Amato (Author)

In Body, Vessel and Sea of Self, Amato explores, with stories, histories, and poems, the elemental notion that bodies put us in place, time, and life and give us meaning. They make us the seeing, touching, walking, earthly, and metaphoric creatures we are. We cannot fashion an autobiography or cultural history without considering that our minds, lives, tools, and machines are, in great measure, the work and creation of the body-the vessel and sea of self.
