Jim & Carol McCord will be in the store to sign their book, Beneath the Midi Sun, which features a mix of photography and poetry. 

Bringing their artistic vision and keen sense of awareness, Jim and Carol McCord have traveled throughout Europe recording memorable places and moments in poems and images. Their first collection together, Two Lenses-Four Europes (Shanti Arts, 2019), conveyed the highlights of their travels through England, France, Greece, and Spain. This second collection, Beneath the Midi Sun, offers a focused look at southern France-its remarkable structures and monuments, rivers and lush landscapes, colorful markets and plentiful food, and above all, its relationship with the sun, source of life-giving warmth as it washes over this ancient land and its passionate people.

Jim McCord is an emeritus professor of English literature whose poems have appeared in a variety of journals and four books. Carol McCord is a lifelong hiker and former yoga instructor. Her photographs have been selected for exhibitions and publications in the United States and abroad.
