A photograph of Soroka flanked by Dick Higgins and Marvin Sackner taken at the EyeRhymes visual conference at Edmonton, Canada 1997 is reproduced. Marvin Sackner is characterized as "the owner of the biggest archive of visual poetry."The book depicts more than 20 examples in the Old Ukrainian language and 49 examples in many national literatures. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
