In \u003ci\u003eDraw Me \u003c\/i\u003e\u003ci\u003eAfter\u003c\/i\u003e, Cole evolves a supple, singular music that charts regions of wonder and danger, from Eden as a place of first response and responsibility to modern sites of natural and political catastrophe. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAt the heart of the volume lie two remarkable series: one translates drawings by Terry Winters into a textured language spun from the material abstractions of Winters's art; the other winds through the book in dreamlike fashion, offering prismatic and often haunting meditations on the letters of the Hebrew alphabet--in kabbalistic tradition, the building blocks of existence. Inventive and receptive, physical, metaphysical, and playful, Cole's poetry disturbs and enchants with \"a quiet, streaming power . . . that leads the reader back to it over and over again\" (Ray Gonz疝ez, \u003ci\u003eThe Bloomsbury Review\u003c\/i\u003e).\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePeter Cole\u003c\/b\u003e was born in Paterson, New Jersey, in 1957.
