Dream Songs
The complete Dream Songs--hypnotic, seductive, masterful--as thrilling to read now as they ever wereJohn Berryman's The Dream Songs are perhaps the funniest, saddest, most intricately wrought cycle of poems by an American in the twentieth century. Henry falls in and out of love, and is in and out of the hospital; he sings of joy and desire, and of beings at odds with the world. They are also, more simply, the vibrantly sketched adventures of a uniquely American antihero named Henry.
He is lustful; he is depressed.And while Henry is breaking down and cracking up and patching himself together again, Berryman is doing the same thing to the English language, crafting electric verses that defy grammar but resound with an intuitive truth: "if he had a hundred years," Henry despairs in "Dream Song 29," "& more, & weeping, sleepless, in all them time / Henry
