Their caffeine-fueled discussions morphed into the intriguing concept behind this book: a cross-disciplinary creative dialogue in which the poet lets her imagination loose on philosophical texts, and the authors of the papers respond.

So pull up a chair, and join Mort, Meskin and 10 of the world’s leading philosophers of art for coffee, poetry and everything in between.
Meskin began his role in July as head of the philosophy department in UGA’s Franklin College of Arts and Sciences.
