Angela Rawlings’s first book, Wide Slumber for Lepidopterists, is a sensual, magic-realist book of poetry that aligns the human sleep cycle with that of butterflies and moths.
Rawlings has spent the last several years working with a multitude of literary organizations, including Mercury Press, the Scream Literary Festival and the Lexiconjury Reading Series, and in 2005 she was host of the television documentary series Heart of a Poet. During all this, she has been developing her own poetry.
