In this story, we meet Mr. Providence, who is the caretaker of a seemingly normal park. Well, it might look so to a normal person, but Mr. Providence is certainly not normal. He can see into this dream world full of weird monsters and as such, he is trying to protect the visitors from them.

I am not certain what to say to the story. It was certainly interesting, but I am not sure I understood everything. It is tied to H. P. Lovecraft. His short story is actually incorporated into this one. So maybe if I knew more about his Dream Cycle stories, I would appreciate this more, too. Still, it was a pleasant short story.

What I could appreciate was the art. We have this black and white art for the real world that is not that appealing but fitting and then we have this beautiful colorful art for the dream world. Just that art alone made it worthwhile to read.
