C.K. Williams (1936-2015) was the most challenging American poet of his generation, a poet of intense and searching originality who makes lyric sense out of the often brutal realities of everyday life. His poems are startlingly intense anecdotes on love, death, secrets and wayward thought, examining the inner life in precise, daring language. A Dream of Mind represented an important stage in the development of his work. It is dominated by the long title-poem, 'A Dream of Mind', which explores the materials and qualities of states of consciousness with enormous flexibility and suppleness. Other poems explore jealousy, psychology, family relationships and intellectual constructs. This powerful, exhilarating book of poetry is one of the landmark collections of the decade.
