The road Hewitt takes us on is a sleepwalk into the nightwoods, a dream-state where nature is by turns regenerated and broken, and where the split self of the speaker is interrupted by a series of ghosts, memories and encounters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFollowing the reciprocal relationship between queer sexuality and the natural world that he explored in Tongues of Fire, the poet conjures us here into a trance: a deep delirium of hypnotic, hectic rapture where everything is called into question, until a union is finally achieved - a union in nature, with nature.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA threnody for what is lost, a dance of apocalypse and rebirth, Rapture's Road draws us through what is hidden, secret, often forbidden, to a state of ecstasy. It leads into the humid night, through lethal love and grief, and glimpses, at the end of the journey, a place of tenderness and reawakening.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Jonathan Cape","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42490876657739,"sku":"EB_LI0500_EB128_SPG","price":610.0,"currency_code":"THB","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0641\/0023\/7387\/files\/9781787334274-1.jpg?v=1783473974","url":"https:\/\/kinokuniya.co.th\/th\/products\/9781787334274","provider":"Books Kinokuniya Thailand","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
