Remarks that de la Mare, one of the leading literary figures of his day, has now attained the status of literary curiosity.  This review of de la Mare's long novel Memoirs of a Midget brings to light once again de la Mare's unique talent for transforming the everyday into something fantastic and often terrifying.  His "spiritual journeys" are much like Aickman's.
