Epigraph:
You can only tell the truth about people
in fiction. That's why we have fiction. -- Gore Vidal
'In this collection, Reiter extends his experiments with "fusion poetry" to focus on Paul Gauguin, who spent years in Tahiti musing on the fate of artists, especially Vincent Van Gogh, with whom he'd had a stormy relationship at Arles, France.'
