#1 New York Times bestselling, award-winning New Yorker cartoonist Roz Chast's new graphic narrative, exploring the surreal nighttime world inside her mind-and untangling one of our most enduring human mysteries: dreams.

Ancient Greeks, modern seers, Freud, Jung, neurologists, poets, artists, shamans-humanity has never ceased trying to decipher one of the strangest unexplained phenomena we all experience: dreaming. Now, in her new book, Roz Chast illustrates her own dream world, a place that is sometimes creepy but always hilarious, accompanied by an illustrated tour through "Dream-Theory Land" guided by insights from poets, philosophers, and psychoanalysts alike. Illuminating, surprising, funny, and often profound, I Must Be Dreaming explores Roz Chast's newest subject of fascination-and promises to make it yours, too.

Roz Chast was born and raised in Brooklyn. In 1978, her cartoons first appeared in the New Yorker. She has published over a thousand cartoons in the magazine since then. She's written and illustrated a number of books, including the national bestseller Walking into Town, What I Hate: From A to Z, and The Party After You Left and Theories of Everything, both collections of her own cartoons. She is the illustrator of Calvin Trillin's No Fair! and the editor of The Best American Comics 2016. The Harvey Award Hall of Fame Award was given to her.
