Dwelling in the Twilight Realm

Dwelling in the Twilight Realm begins with a series of evocative "dreamscapes" as a lens through which the poet observes the blurring of the observable and the imagined in contemporary society. These poems examine the conjoining of dream and reality in what André Breton called surreality. In the remainder of this collection Don Langford further explores the twilight realm by peeling away social surface layers to reveal underlying disillusionments and revelations. The book concludes with the emergence of a waking state that confronts death, dissolution, and impermanence through appreciative strands of gratitude and wonder. This is a richly layered and poetically imaginative collection by a poet on the move.
