Description
The Dreamers by Karen Thompson Walker is a breathtaking and beautiful novel that explores the possibilities contained within a human life if only we are awakened to them. In this mesmerising story, a mystery illness locks people in perpetual sleep, triggering extraordinary, life-altering dreams.
As panic takes hold of a college town in Southern California, a young couple tries to protect their newborn baby and two sisters turn to each other for comfort as their survivalist father prepares for disaster. Written in luminous prose, The Dreamers is a profoundly moving novel about the power of human life.
This beautiful and devastating novel has a dream-like quality of its own, exploring themes of time, memory, consciousness, and youth with haunting precision.
