The Sunflower Cast a Spell To Save Us From The Void

Jackie Wang
3.83/5 (501 ratings)
Read Now Download Now
In The Sunflower, Wang follows the sunflower’s many dream guises―its evolving symbolism in literature, society, and the author’s own dream life using a mathopoetic technique to generate poems using the Fibonacci sequence (a pattern found in the seed spirals of sunflower). The Sunflower Cast a Spell to Save Us from the Void embodies what Wang calls oneiric poetry: a poetry that attempts to speak in the language of dreams. Although dreams, in psychoanalytic discourse, have been conceptualized as a window into the unconscious, Wang’s poetry emphasizes the social dimension of dreams, particularly the use of dreams to index historical trauma and social processes.
