Author: Olivia Elektra Willson-PiperTitle: Sleep for DessertBinding: PaperbackNumber Of Pages: 41Release Date: 2023-08-27Details: Through the looking glass, you'll find the witty and whimsical poems in Olivia Elektra Willson-Piper's Sleep for Dessert. Here, Alice wanders a gritty wonderland of concrete, pigeons, and streetside caf'e tables, where the line between machine and animal blurs into the same clattering birdsong: "Chaffinch and chainsaw, / jackdaws and hammers, / common crane- / feathers on the facade." With carnivalesque imagery and clever wordplay, the poet weaves a compelling journey through a winding dreamscape. There is curiosity and love, melancholy and fear, the strange and the familiar; but most of all, there is the desire to leave home and the desire to find it again. These dreamlike poems are pinholes on a map where light leaks through.EAN: 9789893346396Package Dimensions: Height: 9 Inches, Length: 6 Inches, Weight: 0.2 pounds, Width: 0.11 Inches
