Sleepers Awake: Poems - Paperback
by Oli Hazzard (Author)
A brilliantly inventive book of poems from a fierce poetic voice, whose work John Ashbery called "exciting, necessary, and new."
Sleepers Awake, Oli Hazzard's third collection, emerges from the daily disarray of care and work, nature and technology. Its ambitious, formally various poems extract "the ore / from boredom," as memory --personal, familial, social, historical--and the collective memory of poetry itself are wrenched out of shape by dramatic disruptions in rhythm, space, and scale. The sadness and pain of forgetting is here too, alongside its unexpected forms of potential.
