A descendant of Kafka lives among us and his name is Ethan Goffman.. Novelist Brian Morton, Recipient of the Guggenheim Foundation Fellowship, the Award in Literature from the American Academy of Arts and Letters, the Pushcart Prize and finalist for the PEN/Faulkner Award and the Kirkus Prize for Fiction Ethan Goffman's Dreamscapes takes us on a surreal journey through worlds built of sand where "the only philosophy that makes any sense is utter uncertainty" and where the world is both "utterly transformed" and simultaneously "the same." Goffman processes the events of our time through dream material that is sometimes satirical, sometimes provocative, but always engaging. These vignettes dream "the world into existence" and take us to the "edge of the universe" where bicycle wheels melt, drip and leak "away into a crack in the pavement," where art disintegrates, and where vision allows us to peer into our minds and histories. This collection provides a thought-provoking escape from our current pandemic reality. Claudine Nash, author of Beginner's Guide to Loss in the Multiverse and nominee for the Pulitzer, Pushcart, and Best of Netawards
