As for Dream: Poems

• Used Book in Good Condition

<p>A series of brief, haunting lyrics and prose fragments, the poems in <i>As for Dream</i> hover in suspension between states of consciousness or being. Hamilton's verse both illustrates and investigates the human experience at many different intervals: as we wake from the dream world, as we meet the loss or disruption of our desires, as we tend to the ill, and as we die. Once we cross those boundaries, does the self remain intact? These poems record and question moments when we slip from the casing of the body and the social world and try to make our way back, or find we cannot.</p>
