Has anyone read this one? Can you give us a brief review? Is it good information, or just English Lit 102? Thanks!

I just got it, but haven't read it yet. On first glance... it's pretty thesis-y... but there seems to be a fair amount of solid research holding up the tent if you know what I mean. :)

Thanks for the reply! I spy a used copy on bn.com, so I'm going to spring for it. We can compare notes when we read it!

Sounds intriguing, I hope you'll share your views with the rest of us. Of course we all know about the Tarot references in the Waste Land, Yeats was an active member of the Golden Dawn and friendly with Pamela Colman Smith, but the Kafka connection is new to me.
