Building Imaginary Worlds: Books, Plays & Comics 1900-1974 - Page 5

From the bibliography of Mark J. P. Wolf's non-fiction book Building Imaginary Worlds: The Theory & History of Subcreation. English titles if available. From Oz & Watership Down, Penguin Island to Lake Wobegon, covering all sorts of fictional places on earth & in space. DO THESE BOOKS EXIST? Could not verify Iran (1905- Hirmiz bar Anhar) or La Mer Mystérieuse(1923- Claire Kenin). Anhar was a silversmith in Baghdad who assisted E.S. Drower in collecting material on the Mandaeans in the 1930's, so this title is suspect. No info on Kenin at all. These books don't seem to exist before The Dictionary of Imaginary Places listed them. Many books in from that work are listed here as well, bit not all. Many books from the SF & Fantasy Masterworks series listed here. I also listed tv tie-in books, novelizations & Whitman Publishing's Little Big Books series. Very comprehensive- but the author forgot Asteroid B-612! I have the correct title for T.C. Bridge's book, not the French listed wrongly.
