And if the Dead Do Dream: Poems by (Paperback)

The poems in this collection, like the dark side of the moon, or the dreams of the dead, gently insist that almost everything that happens in our lives, large or small, is possible only because it is secretly nourished and reinforced by situations that might have happened instead. Not only that, but some of these alternative scenarios may actually occur alongside the final, realized events, but there is simply never enough room in the Story for the nascent versions to be assembled and acknowledged. These poems offer a vivid array of scenes, with their alternatives brought temporarily out of hiding and given a chance to make themselves known as either a supporting cast, or maybe even as members of a fully-operating set of parallel realities.
