Poetry. "Always in Allan Graubard's work there is the dreamer dreaming that he is dreamed by the dreamer, eyes wide open, seeing, yes, but also stripping through the layers that make up our existence, here and now, dark and luminous, dreamt and waking. Graubard's gaze is piercing, it cuts through to the core, as the beings and things, both historical and experienced, that constitute his cosmology acquire movement, rhythm, sound and light, in anticipation of le grand jeu: Through these pages, at once lucid and enigmatic, Graubard ensures that his is a performance in which we are engaged participants and dazzled spectators"--Beatriz Hausner.

Between Night and the other...,
This review is from: Roma Amor (Paperback)
This slim volume is a wonder of enchantment, a voyage through the landscape of a city that exists only while dreaming, without the comfort of being asleep. A real city and a dream city all rolled into one bright yet mysterious space, and the author, the protagonist, the dreamer finds himself awake, immersed in vague moments that incite even more brightness, even more darkness. A priceless novella that one returns to, a voyeur in front of a two-way mirror. On a parallel with Breton's Nadja, with Nerval's Aurélia.Roma Amor
