Can mere words manage to capture the texture of our dreams, which are so fragmentary

and fleeting? This slim volume of twenty poems by Joel Thomas Katz suggests it's not only possible but necessary, because our dreaming hours may not be so different from our waking hours. His quirky, playful poems ask us to consider how the mysterious and unexpected moments of our lives offer the possibility of experiencing more fully what it means to be human. This book shows us that anything can be a source for such an understanding, including picture postcards, sliced radishes and EXIT signs.
