I Dream With Open Eyes: The Life of David Lindsay
16 October 2025
For a while I've been meaning to write up my research into David Lindsay's life, and the result has been a short book, I Dream With Open Eyes: The Life of David Lindsay, Author of A Voyage to Arcturus. For more information see the book's page on this site, where it can be bought as a hardback, or read for free on Archive.org. For a bit more information, you can see this post at my blog. Paperback and ebook editions will follow.
