Sleep Gate

Sylvia Legris

• A startling meditation on dreams, insomnia and sleep states by the Griffin-prize winning Canadian poet Sylvia Legris.
• Rife with language and sound play, the collection traverses the state of a restless night’s sleep, approaching contemporary anxieties around climate change and ecological states through the foggy-haze of the somnambulant.
• This is a masterful collection from a poet moving from cult readership to mainstream attention.
  Comps: Debths by Susan Howe, Conjure by Rae Armantrout, Fierce Elegy by Peter Gizzi.
