Items related to From Sea to Stormy Sea: 17 Stories Inspired by Great...
Seventeen stories by seventeen brilliant writers, inspired by seventeen paintings. That was the formula for Lawrence Block's two ground-breaking anthologies, In Sunlight or in Shadow and Alive in Shape and Color, and it's on glorious display here once again in From Sea to Stormy Sea.
This time the paintings are exclusively the work of American artists, and the roster includes Harvey Dunn, John Steuart Curry, Reginald Marsh, Thomas Hart Benton, Helen Frankenthaler, Winslow Homer, Rockwell Kent, Grant Wood, and Andy Warhol. Among the star-studded lineup of writers you'll find Warren Moore, Jerome Charyn, Jane Hamilton, Christa Faust, John Sandford, Sara Paretsky, Charles Ardai, Barry Malzberg, and Janice Eidus.
It's an outstanding collection, with widely divergent stories united by theme and culture, and--no surprise--beautifully illustrated with full-color reproductions of the seventeen paintings.
Including stories by: Sara Paretsky, Jan Burke, Warren Moore, Patti Abbot, Christa Faust, Jerome Charyn, Barry Malzberg, Scott Frank, Brendan DuBois, Tom Franklin, Gary Phillips, Charles Ardai, Micah Nathan, Janice Eidus, John Sandford, Jane Hamilton, and Lawrence Block.

Review:
If a picture is worth a thousand words, any of Edward Hopper's paintings of American loneliness is worth an entire short story. Ekphrasis--seeing a story in a picture--was seldom so much fun. --Michael Dirda, Washington Post [Praise for Lawrence Block's In Sunlight Or In Shadow]
