P'rea Press

P'rea Press is proud to announce its latest offering: Kyla Lee Ward's first collection of dark fantasy verse and prose vignettes to be launched 27 Sep 2011. For invitation see Ward's Tabula Rasa website: http://www.tabula-rasa.info/LandOfBadDreamsLaunch.pdf

In The Land of Bad Dreams, are discovered valuable truths and dark poetry revealing a beauty inaccessible both to reason and to daylight. Praised by the US Rhysling Poet 2010, Ann Schwader, as "a rich, eccentric miscellany ... skilfully crafted and strangely wrought," the twenty-two poems and three prose vignettes showcased here display Ward’s mastery of contemporary and traditional poetic forms, and her rare consciousness of fantasy, ancient, medieval, gothic and current dark themes.

Editorial direction by Charles Lovecraft achieves high quality presentation with an Introduction, Interview with Ward, Alphabetical List of Titles, Index of First Lines, Glossary and Selected Bibliography of the poet.

Ward’s fourteen atmospheric illustrations and brilliant cover art, with cover design by David Schembri Studios, and book design by Milwaukee’s David E. Schultz confirm this as a collector’s piece.
