'Fiorevolmente' è il libro che racchiude i capolavori floreali realizzati dal grande fotografo Harold Feinstein, tra i protagonisti della fotografia americana, che si uniscono ad altrettante perle rare della poesia. Fiori che non appassiscono mai, foglie che non cadono accompagnano le parole di autori come Francesco Petrarca, William Shakespeare fino a Raymond Carver. Il risultato è una serie di sorprendenti associazioni e inaspettati rimandi simbolici. Come in un prezioso erbario, le immagini delicate e raffinate di Harold Feinstein, si intrecciano alle poesie di Guido Guinizelli, Dante Alighieri, Francesco Petrarca, Johann Wolfgang Goethe, Charles Baudelaire, Eugenio Montale, Walt Whitman, Giovanni Pascoli, Rainer Maria Rilke, Fernando Pessoa, creando una nuova, antologia da guardare, sfogliare e tornare a leggere mille volte.

Feinstein, a noted photographer whose works of roses and other flora and fauna are in collections in museums worldwide, turns his lens to the wonders of the creature about which he writes: 'The earth laughs with flowers, but it dances with butterflies.' With an introduction to butterflies' role in the ecosystem and the need for conservation by the curator of the Magic Wings Butterfly Conservatory and Gardens (South Deerfield, MA), the oversize volume features exquisite images of butterflies including the starry night, sunset moth, pearly malachite, and zebra longwing; and interspersed tributes to these creatures associated with the soul and rebirth. Captions provide common and scientific names, and home country. Annotation ©2010 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
