Dreaming My Animal Selves is an intriguingly surreal journey through myth, legend, fantasy, and more-all guided by a shape-shifting narrator searching far and wide for cosmic unity within the discontinuous landscape of dream and the dreamy, fragmented quality of the everyday world. The dual-language text [English and French] works to heighten the narrator's shifting perceptions, symbol by symbol, vision by vision. "Cardona has given us a gift with this collection that both the English-speaker and francophone alike can appreciate."--World Literature Today
