Summary:  "How a poet finds consolation and grace through viewing the paintings of Vermeer in six world cities. In the midst of a bad divorce (in which the custody of his young daughter is at stake) and over the course of a year, Michael White travels to Amsterdam, The Hague, Delft, London, Washington, and New York to view the paintings of Johannes Vermeer, an artist obsessed with romance and the inner life. He is astounded by how consoling it is to look closely at Vermeer's women. Michael White is the author of four collections of poetry. His most recent collection is Persea's Vermeer in Hell. He teaches poetry and is the chair of the Creative Writing department at the University of North Carolina at Wilmington"--Provided by publisher. Genre:  Memoirs.
