Backlist Mondays: Imagining Imagining by Gary Barwin

**Shortlisted for the Hamilton Literary Award for Non-fiction**
**Shortlisted for the Hamilton Literary Awards Kerry Schooley Book Award**

An accomplished poet and novelist, Barwin now turns his skilled hands to essays in small yet expansive collection. In Imagining Imagining: Essays on Language, Identity and Infinity Barwin thinks deeply about big ideas: story and identity; art and death; how we communicate and why we dream. Filled with witty asides and a generosity of spirit, these are essays readers will turn to again and again.
Writing for the Seaboard Review, Aviva Rubin described it as "A poetic, romping work unconcerned with arriving but enthralled by what flies by, lands, crawls, and sings, Imagining takes the reader to unexpected places. It resists questions like, what am I doing here? Instead, it asks, what is here? Deep into the book, Barwin –perhaps contemplating his own life’s work – wonders about the value of art and how art is valued, arriving at books and their worth. 'There may be many copies of a book,' he says, 'but there is only one of us. What is "original" is our experience.'
