Customer Reviews

a great literary exercise

This novel by Rikki Ducornet's is a wonderful play of plenty of literary techniques and relevant themes that are present in her first novels in an embrionic form. Phosphor in Dreamland is the narration of an allegorical voyage from civilization to the natural world in which Ducornet is capable to introduce such important topics as the search for a poetic language to understand the universe, the need to embrace love and sensuality to fulfill the human being's destiny, the necessary overcoming of the past to reach a better future, etc. Phosphor in Dreamland is a marvelous parable about how to recover the communication between man/woman and nature.

Ducornet is a Powerhouse of a Writer

Rikki Ducornet's books should be required reading for all those who are enthralled by beautifully intelligent writing. She's one of our best contemporaries; she's a genius. Check her out.
