Dreamland Theatre

The Dreamland Theatre exists in a photograph of a white building on sledges being pulled through the mud from one location to another by a team of horses in Prince George (then Fort George) circa 1912. These poems are about imagining place and, continuing the work of FINDING FT. GEORGE, Rob Budde's process of trying, and failing, to find out where he is. Poetry is part of a place, and this book deals in the powerful homemaking that is language itself.
