A collection of essays dealing with those monstrous and those marvellous known to us from literature, art, film and politics. It covers writing by Swift, Kafka, Borges and Angela Carter, films by the Brothers Quay and David Lynch, and artworks by Joseph Cornell and Rosamond Purcell.

With the great Renaissance voyages to the New World came the popularity of Wunderkammern, or cabinets of wonders, in which newly discovered monsters and marvels could be displayed. Like such a cabinet, this collection of essays surveys the monstrous and the marvelous—as transmuted in the alembic of Rikki Ducornet''s open-hearted vision—in literature, art and film. For her, excess anomaly, and heterodoxy entice the imagining mind to embrace "otherness," enlarge the world and regenerate Eden.
