Product Information
Inspired by one of the finest lyrics in the English language, the anonymous, pre-Shakespearean Tom o'Bedlam ( By a knight of ghosts and shadows / I summoned am to tourney / Ten leagues beyond the wide world's end / Methinks it is no journey? ), Kenneth Patchen sets off on an allegorical journey to the furthest limits of love and murder, madness and sex. While on this disordered pilgrimage to H. Roivas (Heavenly Savior), various characters offer deranged responses, conveying an otherworldly, imaginative madness. A chronicle of violent fury and compassion, written when Surrealism was still vigorous and doing battle with psychotic reality, ?The Journal of Albion Moonlight?is an American monument to engagement.Product Identifiers
