"No. 10, Anne Waldman's Dream Book of Fez, is a musical genome, the architecture of a landscape between language and beyond it. In the photopoetic distance between the tomb and womb of Waldman's "invisible family" we brush up against the fabric of unconsciousness and hear the spectral voice of Jean Genet say: "dreaming is nursed in darkness." Dream Book of Fez offers "gateways to power going both ways" while reaching for the "impossibly verbal" overlap of cultures. Waldman holds us in language as poet and mother; we return to Earth by her "mystical time," slowly bound and bonded by love." --Publisher's description
