{"product_id":"sleep-gate","title":"Sylvia Legris: Sleep Gate [2026]","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn \u003cem\u003eSleep Gate\u003c\/em\u003e, Sylvia Legris descends into biological dreaming itself: the sleep beneath sleep, where 'the dream under the dream \/ is the dream of plants'. Taking up Inger Christensen's summons to 'dream our way inward', and H.D.'s insistence that the dream is 'no poetic phantasy \/ but a biological reality', these poems dissolve the waking world into the fabric of sleep, drawing the natural and the built alike into its slow respiration. Animating a whole taxonomy of sleepers - a ruby-throated hummingbird whose dream is a nest 'hinging on spider silk', a honeybee with 'perfect recall of citrus one thousand and fifty-seven flowers ago', an earthworm fleeing 'by slow peristaltic wave' - Legris follows sleep through phylum and season. Sensuous, Latinate and strange, this extraordinary collection captures the disjunctive, jump-cutting logic of dreams, leaping from a time before 'the clouds are inventoried' to winter's 'gnashing bruxism', and assembles the world, as one does on waking, through distortion and towards clarity.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Legris, Sylvia","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":55329521402195,"sku":"9781804272770","price":16.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0616\/4001\/6057\/files\/legris-sylvia-sylvia-legris-sleep-gate-2026-9781804272770-1262371335.jpg?v=1791839497","url":"https:\/\/chaptersbookstore.pro\/products\/sleep-gate","provider":"Chapters Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
