Dreamhouse

"THE DREAMHOUSE....is a book of scope and delicacy, continuing an elegiac strain though American poetry with its roots in Whitman and more recent antecedents like Robert Lowell, without sacrificing Sleigh's ongoing dialogue with voices out of a deeper past....Though built out of loss, the poems in this collection refuse to found themselves upon pathos....Sleigh's eyes seem to have adjusted to the half-light under which we encounter the dead, and as a result, elegy serves this writer as a lyric space for the exploration of embodiment and the lingering memory of embodiment."Sleigh, Tom is the author of 'Dreamhouse' with ISBN 9780226750491 and ISBN 0226750493.
