English: John Masefield. The Dream. Illustrated by Judith Masefield. London: MacmilIan, 1922. According to the reviewer from The Frontier, "In a mood of puzzled weariness with life the poet falls into a dream, sudden shifting, fantastical, strangely beautiful. Through many corridors and tapestried rooms of an ancient castle we follow the dreamer till in confusion we ask, Is there meaning in all this riot of bright sense-experience? By the magic of his art Masefield makes us feel that the questions we ask of such a phantasmagoria are those which in the troubled opening of the piece he himself was asking of life. He haunts us with the sense that life is a dream.
