Wet Dream

By Erin Robinsong

Wet Dream is an expansive, erotic, and enlivening book of ecological thinking.

Wet Dream is an expansive book of ecological thinking for living on a wet planet on fire. Erotic and political, vibrating with pleasures, medicines, and unrest, these poems metabolize toxic logics and traverse enmeshed ecologies through the wetness that connects. A pulse of agency to the heart. 

"Wet Dream is brain lube for an insurgent language—creaturely poems that remake your body and relation to the world. I want to smear them all over." — Astrida Neimanis, author of Bodies of Water: Posthuman Feminist Phenomenology
