Haunted by Cocteau's version of the Orpheus myth since 1968, Craig Watson collected a palimpsest of renderings, fragments and images from the Orphic tradition for the next 40 years. In 2008, he returned to these materials in the wake of a near fatal stroke. The result is Sleepwalking with Orpheus, a constellation of voices that recount the legendary singer's continuous journey through the realms that compose a life.

Poesi inom Skonlitteratur

Craig Watson is the author of eleven books and chapbooks. His poems, essays and reviews have appeared in numerous literary journals since 1982. His most recent book, Secret Histories (Burning Deck, 2007), completes a trilogy that includes Free Will (Roof, 2000) and True News (Instance, 2002). Among other considerations, these books traverse the languages and silences that by turn construct and erase history, even as its actual subjects struggle to endure.
