I Must Be Dreaming
I Must Be Dreaming | Roz Chast
8 posts | 9 read | 1 to read
#1 New York Times bestselling, award-winning New Yorker cartoonist Roz Chast's new graphic narrative, exploring the surreal nighttime world inside her mind-and untangling one of our most enduring human mysteries: dreams. Ancient Greeks, modern seers, Freud, Jung, neurologists, poets, artists, shamans-humanity has never ceased trying to decipher one of the strangest unexplained phenomena we all experience: dreaming. Now, in her new book, Roz Chast illustrates her own dream world, a place that is sometimes creepy but always hilarious, accompanied by an illustrated tour through Dream-Theory Land guided by insights from poets, philosophers, and psychoanalysts alike. Illuminating, surprising, funny, and often profound, I Must Be Dreaming explores Roz Chast's newest subject of fascination-and promises to make it yours, too.

In which Chast recounts her dreams. That's it. There's no through line or point to any of it. Tedious and self indulgent.

I love Roz Chast and her off-the-wall humorous New Yorker cartoons. This collection was just okay for me, mostly because I‘m not particularly fond of listening to descriptions of dreams. But some funny ones for sure.

Flaneurette I thought the same about this book 3mo

I love Roz Chast‘s cartoons and this collection, on the theme of dreams, gave me some chuckles, but it‘s rather slight as far as content goes. It did make me want to revisit my own dream journals. I‘m glad I borrowed this from the library rather than buying it. #Comics

Dreams come out of my brain. As I sleep, I am creating them. So why, as they unfold, am I always so surprised?!??

Roz Chast is an original. Her latest is a dream diary which makes me want to start my own because I have quite the unusual dreams myself! Listening to other people‘s dreams can be tedious, so I‘m glad it wasn‘t any longer. While this wasn‘t life-changing, I found it entertaining and a pleasant enough little graphic novel to flip through. 💭

You just gotta love Roz! Neurotic, zany, hilarious.

Lesliereadsalot I love her books. Her humor really speaks to me. I especially loved “Can‘t We Talk About Something More Pleasant”, her book about aging parents. Really looking forward to this new one! 6mo
Chelsea.Poole I‘m reading this one now! 6mo
