Now Voyager takes readers on an intergalactic journey through the evocative poetry of Cynthia Anderson and the vibrant watercolors of Susan Abbott—from Planet Earth to the edge of the solar system, from the otherworldly environs of Joshua Tree to the dream world, from black holes to myths old and new. It’s a pilgrimage of exploration and reinvention, of beauty and mystery. Inspired by Walt Whitman’s exhortation—“Now voyager sail thou forth to seek and find’’—this volume shows how a journey to the stars can be a journey to the center of your own heart.

Now Voyager, by poet Cynthia Anderson, illustrated by Susan Abbot. Wow! This absorbing collaboration of poetry and art held me spellbound during multiple readings. This is a book to have an ongoing relationship with, and if you are an artist, this visual and literary offering will serve as a wellspring of inspiration. Now Voyager evokes “Thirteen Ways of Looking at a Blackbird” as it considers the cosmic journey of Voyager through a multifaceted lens that is mystical, sensory, and wise. Now Voyager should be in bookstores everywhere and placed next to your favorite chair.
