In the rain-soaked city of Verdigris, dreams are more than the visions that visit children in their sleep. They are living fragments of joy, courage, memory, and wonder-and someone is stealing them.Ten-year-old Noah Moore has grown up surrounded by silence. Since his mother, Genevieve, mysteriously disappeared three years ago, his father has become a distant, broken man, and the warmth of childhood has slowly faded from their home. But when Noah discovers a hidden walnut box beneath the floorboards of his bedroom, he uncovers a collection of impossible treasures: a glowing paper boat, a humming glass flower, and delicate origami birds that seem to breathe with a life of their own.Each enchanted object holds a piece of a child's stolen dream.When Noah returns a luminous paper boat to Finnian Hart, a boy drained of his laughter and spirit, Finnian comes alive again. Noah realizes that the mysterious objects may hold the power to restore what has been taken from the children of Verdigris. Yet every act of restoration comes at a terrible personal cost, threatening to erase the precious memories he still carries of his mother.Behind the disappearances stands Elias Hawthorne, the Clockmaker, a brilliant and tormented inventor who has built a terrifying mechanism to harvest the dreams of sleeping children. Driven by grief and an impossible desire to reclaim someone he has lost, Elias is willing to sacrifice an entire city of innocent lives for the chance to bring his own loved one back.As the machinery of the city awakens and thousands of dreams are drawn into a storm of stolen light, Noah must confront a devastating choice. Can he save the children without losing the last pieces of his mother? And can compassion overcome the desperate grief that has turned a grieving man into a thief of childhood?A Thousand Dreams Without a Name is a richly imagined fantasy about the fragile magic of childhood, the price of grief, and the extraordinary courage it takes to protect the dreams that make us who we are. In a world of clockwork wonders, forgotten memories, and luminous paper creations, one boy must discover whether love is something that can be recovered-or something that must be freely given.
