Dreams and nightmares often give us glimpses into our true character; they can reveal our deepest anxieties and our most ambitious aspirations. Weird fiction has a rich history with dreamlike stories and nightmares that cross boundaries between the real and imaginary. Even H. P. Lovecraft endured many bizarre dreams from the early days of his youth that he then used as inspiration for some of his fiction and poetry. Now world-renown weird fiction scholar and editor S. T. Joshi has assembled a new set of nightmares from some of the strongest minds in weird fiction today.

Oversized at 7"x10", offset printed on acid-free paper with Smyth sewn case binding. Black embossed end sheets, black satin book riddon, bound in black leather. Housed in a black slipcase. 

Comments

  1. I am particularly interested in the scope of dreams (particularly recurring and 'serial' story dreams) to be incubators for horror. Thomas Ligotti wrote a piece "Oneiric Horror". Very interesting. The human brain seems geared to create monsters in nightmare and much is based in those dark nether worlds. Once a dream has hold, we have a fascination that either fears or thrills to the prosepect of sleep.... looking forward to coming with you to "The Barrier Between"! Very exciting... and such illustrious company... the date is in my diary! G. :-)=
