KEW is one of my idols! !! To me, "THE RIVER OF NIGHT’S DREAMING" is canon.
Taken from an interview that was conducted by Chuck Owston for "Dark Troubadour" #1, Autumn 1994.
"Q: In "THE RIVER OF NIGHT’S DREAMING" you make references to THE KING IN YELLOW. How much did this classic influence you?"
"KEW: Much of my work has resonances of Robert W. Chambers. While almost all of his books were hack-work romances, the best of his supernatural horror can stand with the very best. The primary lesson I’ve learned from reading Chambers was to create a deliberate barrier against final comprehension — thus creating the lost uncertainty of an extended nightmare."
Scripture! !!
Looking at "black wings" in Kinsport as Gordon Lightfoot and Libby Van Cleeve's oboe lead me through a night of sharp, cold shadows~ I wonder if there's a place to rest my head in these sunless corridors~~ guess we'll see . . .
Light what a steppenwolf smokes, dream! !!

I pre-ordered the KEW tome from Centipede Press. I can't wait! All of KEW's horror collected together in a beautiful Centipede Press book. Quality my friend, quality.
