So far, a tangled web of connections and disconnections between surrealist and dada artists (of various media). It's aimless and reactionary, much like dada itself, without meaning, or intentionally deconstructing meaning. We'll see if it coheres, only to be dissolved, down the way. I expect as much, but dadaists were known to destroy expectations. That was their whole reason for being.

Nothing quite like the structure of reality shifting halfway through the book to add some intrigue to the story.

I am becoming enthralled. I am, however, glad that I am familiar with the symbolism, the surrealist, and the Cthulhu (and particularly The Dreamlands) Mythos.

Things are coming together, which means they are beginning to fall apart.

Introductions are over. Now we are descending into the dreamlands. This has become dangerous, intriguing . . . and fun!

Surrealist art and Lovecraftian/Dunsaneyan dreamlands. What's not to love?

Yes, I'm already reading five books at once (most of them very slowly), but I just couldn't hold off on cracking the cover of this one. After reading the foreword, I'm very, very glad I did. This could be a treat.
