Inhaltsangabe

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.
Written for the stage and screen, ONE LAST DREAM asks disquieting questions: Do the dreams we spin, the thoughts we ponder betray us? Can our musings be censored? Will the neurons in our brains be rewired to turn us into servile conformists? Is the clash of dreams the real cause of mankind's afflictions?
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.
