Другият сън

After dialling a wrong number, a young man finds himself in an unfamiliar world where time and space lose their stability and which slowly fills up before his eyes with strange objects and people. Every step he takes is unpredictable, leading him now to horror at the alien, now to wonder at it. Told as one long monologue of a consciousness pieced together from memories and remnants, a stream of thought without paragraphs and with barely any dialogue, the novel is a psychological story disguised as a fantastic one, whose aim is a return to familiar reality. It asks what happens when we hand our memory and desires over to technology, at a time when the future has quietly become part of everyday life and the distances between minds and hearts seem endless.
