Subject: [Fwd: RE: Photos and Poems by Simone & Manjul]

This material is the result of Maria Mumford introducing Madhu to Susan
Simone in Durham, NC last October.  Susan needed a translator for poems
written by a Nepalese poet  in response to her photographs.  Madhu is an old
friend of the poet and an award-winning translator, so he readily agreed.
He diligently worked on translations while he was with me, especially after
his eyesight was restored.  He finished in the Ottawa area before leaving
Canada.  The story of the international collaboration is itself remarkable.
I hope you enjoy the results.
    Jack

Thanks for all of the praise for the Jouvert Poems and Photographs.   I hope
that many of you are able to get to a computer where you can successfully
down-load the software and view the movie.   Manjul really comes to life
reading ³Washing Shadows² and Richard has done a wonderful job of weaving in
a bit of Kathmandu, the Himal and the voices of Aavas and Manjul.  Please do
read the Editors Notes by Debra Wyrick for an excellent job of researching
and summarizing the evolving crisis there.
