***

"A writer of such chillingly matter-of-fact, unself-pitying vigour that her vision transcends itself."--New Yorker.

In this powerful fantasy, Kavan describes the life of an individual who cannot face the harsh impact of modern civilization. Exploring the shifting territory between the concrete world and the world of dreams, she questions both the ultimate reality of personal identity and of existence itself.

"First published in 1957 and now re-issued, this novel is one of the finest examples of Anna Kavan's powers to explore 'the nocturnal worlds of our dreams, fantasies, imagination and non-reason'" (Anais Nin in The Novel of the Future)
