There is a brief, very informative abstract in English at the beginning of the book. The book is divided into three chapters, viz., 1) Evolution of visual poetry to the 20th century, 2) Contemporary visual poetry of the 20th century, and 3) Evolution of Ukrainian visual poetry in a world context. A photograph of Soroka flanked by Dick Higgins and Marvin Sackner taken at the EyeRhymes visual conference at Edmonton, Canada 1997 is reproduced. Marvin Sackner is characterized as "the owner of the biggest archive of visual poetry."The book depicts more than 20 examples in the Old Ukrainian language and 49 examples in many national literatures. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
