Its ambitious and formally diverse poems extract the ore from boredom, as 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 are also present, alongside their unexpected forms of potential. The title, borrowed from the Lutheran hymn that inspired a Bach cantata, captures the book's dreamy, kaleidoscopic, cross-temporal dialogues. Through satirical, allusive, tender, and hopeful poems, Sleepers Awake creates spaces for intimacy with the reader, arguing through an off-key melody for the jovial texture of batshit relations, for the pleasure of live-drawing in skeptical company.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 164g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 134 x 216 x 12 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781800172999\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Oli Hazzard","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":45276679897338,"sku":"9781800172999","price":9.27,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1709316835811_book.jpg?v=1709451524","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/sleepers-awake-9781800172999","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
