    THE BOOK OF DREAMS PDF, EPUB, EBOOK Tim Severin | 352 pages | 01 Oct 2015 | Pan MacMillan | 9781447212140 | English | London, United Kingdom a book review by Michael J. McCann: The Book of Dreams: A Novel He ends up in the Wellington Hospital in a coma. Meanwhile, we also experience the dream-like state in which Henri is stranded as his body struggles to heal and his mind tries to escape from the coma. Perhaps the best drawn of the three is young Sam, who has an IQ of and is a synesthete, someone whose brain tends to translate physical perceptions into colors. Because she is now alone in the world, hospital staff know almost nothing about Maddie that could be used to coax her back to awareness, and Sam makes it his mission to learn all he can about her. Eddie Tomlin is an interesting character who carries the spear for Nina George when it comes to writers and books. He steps through the door and finds himself back in his office, but in a different life. He steps through the next door to something different once again and quickly becomes lost in a maze of alternate realities. Dreams take us into remote past, allowing once again going through both joyous and sad events of our lives. Sometimes dreams offer us magical pictures of the future, allowing us to see what we could not imagine in the present. We remember some dreams clearly and for a long time, but immediately forget the others just having woken up. All of that is the wonderful world of our dreams.
