The Oz Suite

Oz – One of the most famous literary images to cross over into the dark streets of the real world...

Oz – The symbol for all things other. Over the rainbow. At the far end of the yellow brick road. In the shadowy parts of the brain. Where the witches and the wizards and the flying monkeys are...

Oz – something that transcends childhood, adulthood, here, there, inside, outside, the mind, reality...

Oz ­– They came down from the sky one night like baby spiders cast to the winds, tucked into pearlescent spiral shells suspended from parachutes made of no earthly silk.

Oz – the soil and fertilizer that Gerard Houarner uses to grow three substantial stories.  Three amazing studies of how the mind, the imaginary and the real interact. And how they can blur and become fused.
