Lila Matsumoto Livres

Exploring existence and emotion, this collection presents a vibrant array of surreal imagery, resembling a whimsical picture-book. The poems showcase a playful naivety that contrasts with profound inquiries into life and feelings. Through skillful wordplay, they express heartbreak and challenge the boundaries of language, often encapsulating deep sentiments within a single line.

"Two Twin Pipes Sprout Water brings together five discrete sequences of poems and poem-stories. Moving through different voices and times, landscapes and interiors, Lila Matsumoto's new collection offers a sense of the world as an observed tableau, inviting the reader to participate in the creation of a strange yet familiar world full of ordinary-extraordinary moments." -- back cover.
