| Description: | Select Guide Rating This book-length erasure of pages from Stephen King’s Misery reimagines the novel's themes of constraint and possibility through beautiful, mixed-media poems. Visually arresting and utterly one-of-a-kind, Sarah J. Sloat''s Hotel Almighty is a book-length erasure of pages from Misery by Stephen King, a reimagining of the novel''s themes of constraint and possibility in elliptical, enigmatic poems. Here, "joy would crawl over broken glass, if that was the way." Here, sleep is a "circle whose diameter might be small," a circle "pitifully small," a "wrecked and empty hypothetical circle." Paired with Sloat''s stunning mixed-media collage, each poem is a miniature canvas, a brief associative profile of the psyche—its foibles, obsessions, and delights. |
