- More about Chasm: A Weekend
Tanning's fictional debut is a complete artistic success, featuring confident, fluid prose and passages of hallucinatory beauty. Set in a desert mansion called Windcote, it follows a group of guests driven by obsessions and confusions, led by the indomitable Destina into a mysterious canyon. Tanning's passionate inventions as a writer are lovingly and wisely resolved.

In the captivating embrace of the desert, a mansion constructed by a deranged mind emerges with an audacious architectural grandeur, akin to a defiant insult. This estate, known as Windcote, bears a deceptive name, and its despicable owner, Raoul Meridian, has cordially invited a gathering of guests to spend a weekend within its confines. During this enchanting sojourn, they will be relentlessly propelled by passions and confusions that surpass any they have ever encountered. Undeterred by the turmoil and setbacks surrounding her, the resilient child Destina stands as a guiding light, leading them into the enigmatic depths of a mysterious canyon. Within this treacherous terrain, desire and cruelty intertwine, forging an unyielding truth that will forever alter their lives.
It is undeniably unjust that Dorothea Tanning, with a remarkable and enduring artistic journey spanning decades, should have also cultivated the harmonious art of prose. Moreover, the fervent creations of her literary mind should be skillfully and tenderly resolved, leaving a lasting impact on the hearts and minds of readers. Richard Howard's profound admiration for Tanning's dual talents shines through in his heartfelt words, encapsulating the sheer brilliance of her artistic achievements.
