Scope and Contents

The author varies typography and adds images to enhance the meanings of words. He also provides brief dictionary definitions underneath each of the word-images. The word poem serves as the image and the definition as the caption for these picture poems. The poems resemble those composed by Peignot in "Le Petit Peignot" (1996) & "Toutes les Pommes se Croqent" (1996). However, Gruenoun's poems differ from Peignot's poems in that line drawings are often added and more varied fonts are employed. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
