Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sonnets and Songs for a House of Days To The Old Friends Do you remember, when our lives were young, How the winds and the waters, the sun and the rain Were filled with a mystery almost pain? How the days strove to speak but could find no tongue, And welled in our hearts instead, and sung? Do you remember? Do the windy hollows Still set the soul to their melody? Deep in your dreams do you not see The sunlight and the wheeling swallows, The clouds above and the shade that follows? Do you remember? The years are long, And men must seek for what is not. They may well forget - have you forgot? - The light and the mist and the wonderful song With its far-off burden sweet and strong. Sister, we saw the stars appear; Aye, and we counted them one by one. To-night I watched as we had done; But ah, the magic and the fear Of the stars is gone this many a year. Sister and friends, - we who have wet Our childhood feet in the meadow brook, And we who have read from the selfsame book, And whoever has paused where our paths have met, - Let us remember.

Download or read book The Dream Songs written by John Berryman and published by Farrar, Straus and Giroux. This book was released on 2014-10-21 with total page 469 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The complete Dream Songs--hypnotic, seductive, masterful--as thrilling to read now as they ever were John Berryman's The Dream Songs are perhaps the funniest, saddest, most intricately wrought cycle of oems by an American in the twentieth century. They are also, more simply, the vibrantly sketched adventures of a uniquely American antihero named Henry. 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. 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 could not make good." This volume collects both 77 Dream Songs, which won Berryman the Pulitzer Prize in 1965, and their continuation, His Toy, His Dream, His Rest, which was awarded the National Book Award and the Bollingen Prize in 1969. The Dream Songs are witty and wild, an account of madness shot through with searing insight, winking word play, and moments of pure, soaring elation. This is a brilliantly sustained and profoundly moving performance that has not yet-and may never be-equaled.
