Description:
Kurt De Boodt keeps vigil. For a child who outgrows him. For the boy he once was and who learned on the playground what a group is capable of. He keeps vigil for the broken world that the twentieth century has left behind and commutes between the personal and the public. In Wake, De Boodt has mastered the sonnet form in a virtuoso manner. Commitment and a desire for freedom put his poems under high tension. At the end of the ride, he - and we - have only one defense: stay awake.
