I Love Hearing Your Dreams: Poems
by Matthew ZapruderFrom one of contemporary poetry&’s most playful and original minds, 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 anew—sleep 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.
