Notă biografică

Though he is today regarded as a profoundly influential author of sci-fi and visionary fiction, British novelist David Lindsay struggled to publish during his life. A Voyage to Arcturus, his first novel, didn't see print until he was in his mid-40's, and his career as a writer saw very little critical or commercial success. He died in 1945, leaving behind several more manuscripts, which remained unpublished after numerous rejections, and an unfinished novel. A year after his death, Arcturus was republished. Bolstered now by praise from authors and critics including C.S. Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien, the popularity of Arcturus spurred a republications of Lindsay's other titles and the publication of his previously unpublished works, including his unfinished final novel The Witch. Experimental in both form and content, Lindsay's novels may not have found their readership while he was alive, but today, they are recognized and praised for their singular vision, deep impact on multiple genres, and unique blend of fantasy, philosophy, and science-fiction.
Jim Woodring is an acclaimed, cartoonist and author of the wordless metaphysical Frank series. The winner of multiple Harvey and Inkpot awards, he has created thousands of standalone drawings and paintings, including a suite of enormous ink drawings made with Nibbus Maximus, a functioning six-foot dip pen he designed and built. His large, painstakingly-rendered charcoal drawings of bizarre tableaus are in collections all over the world. He also makes machines that address his perceptual difficulties, such as the sinister Looty and the nerve-shredding Foot Grinder. As of this writing he is just finishing up his 400-page Frank magnum opus One Beautiful Spring Day, due out in 2022. He lives in Washington State with his wife.

Recenzii

The book I think is most underrated: David Lindsey,A Voyage To Arcturus.
That shattering, intolerable, and irresistible work
Lindsay's engrossing book, a mixture of metaphysics and surreal dream-quest, stands as one of the great originals.
