Summary/Abstract: The Other Side (1909) is the only novel by an Austrian painter and illustrator, Alfred Kubin. His work epitomizes the modernist concept of art synthesis. Kubin, drawing from the aesthetics of grotesque, creates an amalgam of apparently detached forms of representation, literature and painting. The Other Side uses surrealist humour and nightmarish motifs of onirism to convey the existential anxiety of fin de si`ecle.
