Opis

In Waking I Dream, the sequel to Dreaming I Wake and the second novel of Kim Robson's Dreaming Trilogy, we enter the rich inner world of Joan McQueen, who, with Angelman Syndrome, was severely mentally disabled from birth. At eight years of age, in the institution where she lives, she's abused by a predatory doctor. But in her potent dreams of another life, in another time, Joan is a math shark with a photographic memory, a WWII-era OSS undercover agent and cryptologist, and a globe-trotting Nazi hunter. This is the world that is most authentic and tangible to Joan. In this existence, Joan realizes the wanted Nazi doctor, Jochen Konrad Schweiger, and her institutional rapist, Joseph Shiner, are actually one and the same man, one merely being the younger version of the other. Joan realizes she has the power to kill Schweiger in her dreams before Shiner can prey on her future self. In an epic dreamtime saga, spooled out over decades and crossing the ends of the earth, Joan stalks her nemesis and exacts her shocking revenge.
