Joseph Cornell's Dreams by Joseph Cornell

This collection of Cornell's dream journals is definitely interesting, but it's missing something. Perhaps including some of his other types of journal entries would have helped put his dreams in context. However, the appendices included are very helpful. I gave this book 3 stars because it is definitely not one of the best collection of journals/diaries I've ever read.
