Summary:
The visual arts have long been used by Frank Golden as co-ordinates for the generation of poetic narratives and sequences. Gotta get a message to you continues this preoccupation with narrative, in this instance looking at chapters at moments of crisis and transition. The book in six sections also looks at territories rent by war, and at the nature of place and habitude. Book jacket.
