I Love Hearing Your Dreams: Poems
Matthew Zapruder
From a poet whose ';poems don't merely attempt beauty; they attain it' (Boston Review), an enchanting and harrowing journey through the landscape of dreams and twenty-first century hopes and disillusions.
'; Your dreams / have no hidden / agenda to be wise / they are made / to be forgotten / so something / can be known'
I Love Hearing Your Dreams is a book of reveries, of failed elegies, of ';the last time that things were real' and the moments that come afterward. These are dream songs for an age of insomnia, where the poet is always awake ';at that oddest hour / that does not end, / the crooked, unnumbered one' and the future seems to be ';just the past in a suit / that will never be in style.' Yet dreams in Matthew Zapruder's poems are also a place of possibility, of reality envisioned anewsleep shows us not merely what the world is, but what it could be.
From a poet celebrated for his ';razor eye for the remnants and revenants of modern culture' (The New York Times), I Love Hearing Your Dreams is a startlingly beautiful and deeply vulnerable book where lives journey into a mystifying place and emerge transformed.
