TY - ART TI - The Gallery AU - David P Reiter AB - "The Gallery" takes as its focus Paul Gaugin's exile in Tahiti. "In March, 1891, Paul Gauguin set sail for Tahiti, leaving behind his beloved wife Mette, as well as his haunted memories of Vincent Van Gogh. Years later, the British journalist Ronald Symes began a soujourn in the Cook Islands. Gauguin's exile in Tahiti gave rise to many impassioned letters to Mette, while Symes' led him to write The Lagoon is Lonely Now, a romantic view of life in the tropics.

Multi-award winning author David P Reiter ventures beyond their words in this multimedia tour de force that fuses impulse and reflection, fact and conjecture, teasing out emotions too hot to touch, leaving you to wonder where the places we share give way to the islands of the mind." -- CD-ROM description C3 - CD-ROM PY - 2000 LA - English M3 - Multimedia, Poetry UR - https://the-next.eliterature.org/works/1848/0/0/ DB - The NEXT Y2 - 2025-04-03 ER -
