The title for Nicholas Barnes' poetry debut comes from a cluster of eponymously named memorial parks found across America. The poems in this chapbook-length collection comprise a bone depository in verse; a cemetery of song. Restland is a journey through youth, lost innocence, and self-discovery. Enter through the wrought-iron gates and see the mossy tombs, decaying bouquets, and looming thunderclouds. Dive into this phantom dreamland, a spiritual oasis where fluid memory and hazy time reign. Where you can bury your demons six feet under earth, grass, worms, and stone. Where you can wake from the darkness and face tomorrow with love in your heart and silver wings on your back.
