MirrorRealms

'MirrorRealms' is a collaborative work by poet Anthony Mason and surreal artist Karena A. Karras with full colour illustrations. "Mason's words and Karras' art could both easily stand alone. The fact that they are showcased together only heightens the intensity of both works and creates a unique world that is both beautiful and frightening. In MirrorRealms, Mason strikes a curious balance between ordinary and extraordinary. His poems feel fragile, but not from lack of poetic confidence, but because of the crystalline and dream-like scenes he creates.Mason's voice seems to tiptoe in and out of this world with an even and flowing stride. His readers never feel lost or betrayed by his words, but rather trust his judgement and believe in the vividness of his world. The intimacy of Mason's lines, matched with the honesty and boldness of Karras' paintings should not be missed by any fan of fantasy."
