John’s review of Beyond the Golden Stair > Likes and Comments

Bok used to live in a neighboring city to me, but no one in that city (Duluth) seems to be aware of it.

When I read about this novel, it sounded vaguely like a David Lindsay offering. That may have set my expectations too high as I was ultimately disappointed with it. I do have some of his continuations of Merritt's work to still try though.

I think I was expecting too much as well, but it works well enough as a story written during the 1940s. Rather overwritten in places and too many exclamation marks!

Never!
