Kubin walks us through a dream realm of clashing unrealities and points towards an Eastern sense of detachment as a means of escaping the disaster of the dream realm. A prophetic work that outlined the catastrophe that eventually engulfed mitteleuropa during the First World War. The haunting visions characteristic of Kubin's drawings find a home in his captivating prose.

Very Poe like in atmosphere. Genuinely creepy. Very well written and harrowing. A warning. The last third of this book is VERY graphic, powerful and will have you getting several WTF? Moments!

This is the novel of Unutopia. It was well developed until the last chapter which seemed to be a re-written Book of Revelations. It was worth reading, but I started skimming toward the end.

This has got to be one of the strangest books I have ever read. It starts off with the narrator being approached by a messenger who informs him that an old classmate has started his own community called the Dream Realm. He is eager to go but his wife has some reservations and has to be talked into it. Once they pass through the gates of the Dream Realm, in an obvious moment of foreshadowing, our protagonist's wife experiences a feeling of dread pass over her. The next part of the book describes the Dream Realm and its peculiarities. It is a place where the sun never shines and the sky is always cloudy and gray. Eventually the author notices that everyone seems to be under some kind of spell. Further descriptions make it seem as though Claus Patera, the founder and master of the city, has a telepathic connection with all the residents and exercises some kind of mind control over them. At this point I was intrigued by the many mysterious aspects of the Dream Realm and couldn't wait to get to the end and figure out what was behind all of it. The last part of the book gets really weird. A bunch of animals run loose through the city, driving everyone out of their homes. Just about every building starts to crumble and decay. Everyone suddenly starts acting crazy. The last few chapters are filled with lots of WTF moments. The one thing I didn't like much about this book is that I felt like a lot of questions went unanswered. There's all this weird stuff going on in the city, but you never find out exactly how it came to be. Why is the city always dull and gray? How did Claus Patera come to possess his supernatural powers, and why did he decide to use buildings associated with traumatic events to build his kingdom? I was hoping I would get to find out by the end of the book, but a lot of these questions weren't answered to my satisfaction. You just have this really weird book, and it's not fully explained.

I have a weekness for horror.

A man is visited by a person who is referring to an old schoolmate of the man, who in turn wants the man to come and live with him in his town in the middle of nowhere but with a good salary. As it turns out this town is built up by old houses that have been transported from Europe and other places, seemingly handpicked to give the town its special "atmosphere". It is this "atmosphere" which really constitutes the essence of the book and it is hard to describe in few words. Reading the book, I was spellbound from the beginning to the end as if I was reading something deeply essential and yet elusive and hard to pin down. The book isn't "artsy-fartsy" - don't get me wrong - there is something genuine here and a description of a panic-feeling, for instance, is absolutely correct (which is seldom the case in other books). This is the only novel Alfred Kubin wrote and he was hesitant in publishing it. We can be grateful that he did for, as it stands, it is probably the most mysterious book ever written, reminiscent of both Meyrink and Hoffman yet still genuinely unique.

Fans and followers of Alfred Kubin, rejoice: The Other Side is a highly enjoyable evening read. I've shared my own copy throughout the years with several grateful friends, including a seventy-year old lady and a college student in his twenties... and this was everyone's "old favorite". Hand-drawn illustrations (by the author) lend the novelette real charm and intimacy. Kubin's story intrigues, is paced evenly, and -unlike many late nineteenth century literary efforts- is lightly handled. Oh yes, and its odd, subtly weird and amusingly fantastical... without being too, too cerebral. To my knowledge this is the only illustrated edition of the Die Andere Seite available in English translation. So read it first, then share the wealth.
