Re: Walter de la Mare Strangers and Pilgrims

I just received my copy of Behold, This Dreamer! today. I was lucky to find a first American edition (1939) in very good condition.

One thing that struck me right away among the epigrams that accompany the first part, "Dream and Imagination", is an uncredited quotation from Novalis:

"Our life is no dream, but it should and perhaps will become one".

Since Novalis is a favorite of mine, I'd say the book is off to a very good start.
