A fantasist of the first rank, McCay was a key pioneer in the histories of both comics and animation. He had a fascination with dreams that extended beyond his newspaper strip Little Nemo In Slumberland, and it was a fascination as compelling as that of Freud, Jung and Adler’s, as proven in the pages of Daydreams & Nightmares. McCay’s dream-inspired strips, illustrations and cartoons feature rarebit-induced nightmares, playful “what-ifs,” moralistic panoramas, pictorial allegories and other fantastic visions. The book spans the years 1898-1934, the bulk of McCay’s career. McCay’s world was the world of playfulness and whimsy that most leave behind in youth and encounter again only in dreams; Daydreams & Nightmares is a tour through that world.
