Sobre IBD

This two-volume collection presents the poems Dr. Nathan wrote from the 1970s through 2012. The first set of poems, titled East/West, was inspired by viewing the painted oriental screens exhibited at the Freer Gallery in Washington, DC. Moved by these images, he used the medium of poetry to capture the feelings the screens evoked. Dr. Nathan thought in big ideas. His poetic “screens” in this volume explore such recurring universal themes as spirituality, hope, illness and aging, fading of memories, friendship, and family.

Most of the poems examine the themes of beauty and risk, pleasure and danger, in the context of one of three kinds of relationships: to romantic partners, to the spiritual world, and to the world of nature....
