Known for his brilliant short prose pieces as published in the books Early Morning Wind, Wild Cherries, and Diamonds, Dale Herd is a meticulous recorder of the language we move around in, and he possesses the skill and the guts to take it all the way. His underground novel Dreamland Court is simply a masterpiece. Written in the 70’s, 80's, and 90's, and never published, the novel is a collection of monologues that often overlap so that they occur simultaneously on the page. The effect is totally Rashomon.
This Blue Press edition prints the first chapter of the novel. It provides a tantalizing peek into the swirling maelstrom of voices that inhabit Dreamland Court.
