These poems survey their host of holy objects and exotic creatures the way one might the emblems in a dream: curious of their meanings but reluctant to interpret them and simplify their mystery.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTheologically playful, rhetorically sophisticated, and formally ambitious, \u003cem\u003eReveille\u003c\/em\u003e is rooted in awe and driven by the impulse to praise. At heart, these are love poems, though their loves are varied and complicated by terrible threats: that we will cry out and not be answered, fall asleep and never wake. Against such jeopardy \u003cem\u003eReveille\u003c\/em\u003e fixes our attention on a lightening horizon.","brand":"University of Arkansas Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51041327677783,"sku":"9781557286741","price":17.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781557286741.jpg?v=1750949836","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/reveille-poems-9781557286741","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
