Second edition of Ishmael Fiifi Annobil’s acclaimed and rare collection of poems dedicated to the African Diaspora and others enduring similar historical realities.
“Insomnia is a bravura piece of writing. At once philosophical and poetical, the book ranges widely over history and culture, literature and art, exploring a threshold experience that is intimately involved with trespass and contamination: the illicit importing of day into night. With Insomnia, Benjamin aims to light up the workings of our inner minds, delivering a startlingly fresh look at what it means to be wakeful in the dark.”
