Publisher's Synopsis
Pause for a just moment and consider these questions:
- What if you went to sleep one night and never woke up?
- What if you fainted and felt something in the space where you blacked out?
- What happens when the darkness gives you more peace than living?
There is a reason why Sleeping Beauty didn't want to wake up. Take a journey into the darkness, through the power of poetry, and discover the mystery that changed fairy tales forever.
EVERSLEEP is Alexander Bentley's debut poetry collection. A manuscript of poems originally submitted for consideration during the 2017 Walt Whitman Award competition. His words are now accompanied with visceral and thought-provoking illustrations.
Alexander's all-time favorite poet is Edgar Allan Poe, and that influence shows in the poetical work of Eversleep: The Beauty of Dark Silence. With a touch of modern-day romanticism, dark macabre overtones, and psychological power the book blends everything into a seamless page-turning story.
