Bunk Bed Conversation:"The Poetics of Sleep": March 25

Bunk Bed Conversation: "The Poetics of Sleep," with Jeff Dolven & Wayne Koestenbaum

March 25, 7–9 pm

Cabinet, 300 Nevins Street, Brooklyn

FREE. No RSVP necessary.

From the top and bottom bunks, respectively, Jeff Dolven and Wayne Koestenbaum will consider the ancient friendship between sleep and poetry, touching on such topics as embowerment, somnambulism, styles of sleeping, crepuscular consciousness, no-doz, and drowsy syrups.

The first in a series of bunk bed conversations at Cabinet, exploring the public potential of this most private, archaic, and companionable of American scenes. For a long time, we used to go to bed early. On March 25, won't you stay up and talk with us?
