Welcome! Today, we're checking out 'Celephaïs' by Lovecraft. It's about Kuranes, who escapes to a dream city, Celephaïs, that he's literally dreamed up because real life just doesn't cut it for him anymore. Lovecraft gives us this mix of fantasy with a hint of sadness, diving deep into what it means to chase a place that feels more like home than the real world. It's a quick read but sticks with you, especially if you've ever wished for an escape to somewhere perfect. So, if you're up for a little dream journey, 'Celephaïs' is definitely worth your time.
