Eros & Equus, a passion for the horse, A literary anthology
Why does it seem we never tire of good horse stories? Perhaps it is because they connect us to something deeper and more meaningful. Books about the wild joys of riding and the profoundness of our relationships to these grand animals, take us away from everyday reality, but even more than that, they remind us of a creature both noble and kind, powerful and tender, as beautiful today as it was a thousand years ago.

Eros and Equus merge in these selections of prose and poetry from great writers such as John Hawkes, Jim Harrison, Maxine Kumin, Jean Giono, Rose Tremain, Jane Smiley, Mikhail Lermentov, and many others.

With black and white photographs by Donna DeMari.

Donna DeMari has been shooting fashion since the late seventies, as well as photographing horses in a wide range of settings. Her work has appeared in many top European magazines, including Vogue, Elle and Marie Claire.
She was the photographer for Holy Personal, Indiana University Press, 2000.
