I got this book mostly for the textures, but the poems are pretty good too. In doing a little research on the illustrator, Marcello Minale, I found he was stabbed to death in 2001. From the BBC:
Former Olympic rower and renowned designer, Marcello Minale, 58, died after being stabbed following an argument on Saturday in the car park of the Montauroux rowing club in southern France.http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/1097133.stm
