A River of Words: The Story of William Carlos Williams

Understanding what shaped Williams as a young boy helps me appreciate his later poetic voice. I wonder how much of his childhood was based on historical research versus creative imagination.

The integration of Williams' poetry with his life story was seamless at times but jarring at others. Curious if others felt the same or if it added to the storytelling charm.

The artwork added a lot of emotion and energy to the story, but I wonder whether the illustrations were intended to reflect specific poems or themes from his work.
