Plot

Bed of Sphinxes offers a selection of poems from Philip Lamantia’s books and from recent work, representing five decades of impressive poetic achievement, from his early years of association with Surrealists-in-exile through the Beat Generation era to the present. The poems range from visionary apocalypse to a lyrical fusion with nature.By turns nightmarish, erotic, hermetic, they create an astonishing world charged by Lamantia’s energy and imagination.
