Contrary Visions
"Each poem in Contrary Visions is like a painting
in an illuminated manuscript, marking not the passage of months, but
the progress of the soul toward harmony."

Gathering Light - (E-Book)
"Whether Kreiter-Foronda celebrates Van Gogh
offering a solitary coin to a beggar woman or a small child
panhandling 'Among the Ruins of Puca Pucara, Peru,' her poems are
imbued with language both beautiful and strong that consoles and
enchants us."

The Embrace: Diego Rivera and Frida Kahlo
From the first to the last page of The Embrace: Diego Rivera and
Frida Kahlo, Carolyn Kreiter-Foronda captures and evokes the
spiritual richness and artistic quaking of Frida Kahlo and Diego
Rivera and their complicated, love-torn lives. With sumptuous
imagery, yet acute precision and detail, the book delves into the
artistic, marital and physical struggles of the artists, detailing
how Kahlo, who even as she was undergoing painful surgeries and
engaging her work, anguished about her husband Diego Rivera’s famous
infidelities. . . . With its kinetic energy and bold envisioning,
The Embrace is a well-researched, supremely crafted and
perfectly executed narrative “embrace.”
––Shonda Buchanan, author of Who’s Afraid of Black Indians? |
