AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'A novelty in verse, a trumped-up drama, the ghost of a mercurial dream — After Naptime invites readers to “leap inside” and try the labyrinth. Join the narrator, "Edwards", and his “crack team” of fragmentary misfits as they explore alleged hauntings at an unnamed lighthouse, play hide and seek with the mysteries of commerce and engage in a deadly serious game of “double you or nothing” with a neural network. Each scene of the poem takes place across a double-page spread, with centrally located orchestra pit. By the author of People of Earth and A Fluke: a mistranslation of Stéphane Mallarmé’s “Un Coup de dés…”' (Publication summary)
