Galleon of Dream: Poems of Fantasy and Wonder is a poetry collection written and illustrated by Lin Carter. The book was released in paperback by The Sign of the Centaur in 1953.[1] in a limited edition of 200 copies.[1][2] The book is dedicated to Doris Margaret Derrick, "friend and teacher."[2]
Background
Carter intended the book as a companion to his earlier verse collection Sandalwood and Jade, which, like it, contained lyrical verses of a "fantastic nature." Disclaiming innovation in his poetry, and disdaining "the confusing, uneven and unreadable verse-forms in which modern poetry is torturing its public," he lists his inspirations as Percy Bysshe Shelley, Alfred, Lord Tennyson, John Masefield, Lord Byron, the anonymous author of The Song of Solomon and the pseudonymous author of The Kasidah of Hadji Abdu el Yezdi, Edmund Spenser, Bilhana, George Sterling, Lilith Lorraine, Rudyard Kipling, and Robert Louis Stevenson.[3]
Summary
The collection consists of thirty poems, lavishly illustrated, together with a foreword by the author.
