Henry Darger's work is often characterized as naïve and talentlessly executed, worth psychological analysis, but not literary analysis. endobj :)It was one fo those things where the professor had a meeting that day and just left it for us.

There is text on these paintings and my understanding is they are part of the manuscript.In one documentary the producer said she wanted to be the first one to read the whole thing... she failed. The documentary was pretty amazing. An abridged version would be nice, but someone would have to try and edit all that stuff. endobj . <> This paper looks at issues of authorship in Darger's main work, In the Realms of the Unreal, to show that narrative and stylistic control are Press question mark to learn the rest of the keyboard shortcutsI wouldn't want to read the entire 15,000 pages. x��TMk�@��݃��R ��v��8�`zp�$kc��ά�`%�jB��y��;\\��&�S��p=��|8Q�4�WÁ��,�d.��HX��p�`?�ȱ}Y�q��zS�=�,�aٖ��?�fK�jS�`��2v˕a�9�%ݫ�H)�µdPF�� #�j��{��䞾>q%Y�̿ 3�萕~��ɕ��$��ğ;?�a.�� <> <>/ExtGState<>/ProcSet[/PDF/Text/ImageB/ImageC/ImageI] >>/MediaBox[ 0 0 612 792] /Contents 10 0 R/Group<>/Tabs/S/StructParents 1>> 23 0 obj

There are books with selected excerpts and some of the art, and that's it.Isn't there a traveling exhibition of his work from it? endobj Directed by Jessica Yu. Obviously it would be in volumes but I just can't find out anything about this book beyond a short section on Darger's wikipedia page and a mention on the "Doorstoppers" page on Tvtropes.I thought it should be as well, but apparently not. Without his art and his writing, I wonder who would have been the target of this volcanic fury. endobj
