From the author of Nocturnes; Flight from Ein Sof; The Inventor; A Paler Shade of Red -- Memoirs of a Radical; and One Night in Copán.
In his newest and most chilling dystopia, W. E. Gutman takes fellow insomniacs on a dark, eerie journey into a netherworld of visions that skirt the nightmarish regions of insanity.
If neuroscientists succeed, there will soon be a way to access and decipher the brain's most quirky constructs. And ethicists will struggle with a new conundrum: Will dreamers be spied upon by some future thought police? How long before eccentric nightmares or heretical concepts -- whether seized in one's sleep or evoked in a wakeful state -- are intercepted and wayward dreamers are reprogrammed or permanently silenced? In ONE LAST DREAM, W. E. Gutman explores the consequences of mind manipulation in a world where free thought is feared, erudition is reviled, and morality is little more than a distillate of codified groupthink.
