"Until We Talk is a set of jazz inflected ghazals illuminated by the abstract expressionistic paintings of Bill Gingles. The poems and the paintings are tied to the powerful narrative in the award-winning novel, Apeirogon, by Irish-American writer, Colum McCann." This was my first cover with Etruscan Press, and it was such a joy being able to work with the author, Darrell Bourque, and the painter, Bill Gingles to create a cover that would accurately portray the complex themes of their works.
