In \u003cem\u003eClose Your Eyes, Visions\u003c\/em\u003e, poet Michael Ruby explores this common yet overlooked phenomenon. The two texts in the book extend into the visionary realm Ruby’s trilogy, \u003cem\u003eMemories, Dreams and Inner Voices\u003c\/em\u003e, which chronicled the fleeting memories, dream narratives and fragmentary conversations that also occasionally reach consciousness. Taken together, these works are a guide for readers to some of the most elusive productions of the human mind.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“Michael Ruby has done us a great service. He’s put into words some of his hypnagogic visions so we can see and read them. These are the images we see behind closed eyes while falling asleep—unexplainable dots and designs, movements, things that look like something, it’s entertainment.… We thank Michael Ruby for venturing to explore this territory and enlarging the number of things we can write about. One of his best constraints is to refer to the visual field, eyes closed, as the world. Let’s go see what’s happening in that white, maroon, red, yellow and green world, but be careful. The sun might be too bright to continue.” Bernadette Mayer","brand":"Station Hill Press,U.S.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53515872403799,"sku":"9781581772203","price":15.26,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/close-your-eyes-visions-9781581772203","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
