5.0 out of 5 stars Life in the more difficult to get at places inside your own head, 12 Mar 2007
A difficult book to describe, since so much of its impact comes from the atmosphere of strangeness and the unsettling visionary quality of some passages. It recounts how the narrator, an artist, comes to live in the Dreamland, daily life in this odd place ruled by a distant and god-like monarch, and its ultimate catastrophic end.

So what's it like? It bears a resemblance to some of Haruki Murakami's work - especially Hard Boiled Wonderland. In fact I wonder if Murakami has read it? The only other remotely comparable work is Gustav Meyrink's The Golem - another obscure work by a European author dealing in the night-time of the mind.

Actually it is unlike anything. It's not even like itself.
