Journals, Volume 2: 2002-2022
No Customer Reviews
In this second volume of his journals, Matt Cardin continues his ruminations on the subjects he has made his own-the theory and practice of weird fiction, the complexities of religious belief, and the relation between these two seemingly disparate realms. We find fascinating synopses of stories written and unwritten; reflections on films ranging from Alfred Hitchcock's Notorious to Chariots of Fire; accounts of bizarre dreams that have plagued the author; analyses of such writers as Thomas Ligotti (whose work Cardin has studied in great detail), Bruno Schultz, H. P. Lovecraft, Ray Bradbury, and many others; and intimate glimpses into the fluctuations in Cardin's personal life. Throughout, the author brings an incisive sensibility to the problems of life, thought, and feeling in the modern world. "Epic and intimate, a portrait of a mind and a milieu, with deep dives into the creative mind, the nature of the weird, and and how to find one's way in a world that's sick."-Booklife by Publishers Weekly on volume 1 of Matt Cardin's Journals
