Resumen del Editor
What if you could relive the enchantment of childhood bedtime - but with magic that is real? What if you felt the wonder you once sensed when you believed that anything was possible? Or were inspired to see the world through fresh eyes?
'Whatever dreams he was having, Jason knew they had nothing to do with his physical body. His eyes were firmly shut and his consciousness withdrawn from his senses when all this was going on. Yet in his dreams he experienced sights, sounds and even visceral sensations much more intensely than when he was awake.'
In this compendium of delightful short stories, David Michie draws us into the extraordinary experiences of everyday people as they encounter those tell-tale cracks exposing reality as not quite what it seems.
Four female book club members are unexpectedly propelled, by the same black and white photograph, to discover a shared purpose beyond their wildest imaginings. An earnest young seeker finds that drawing aside the veil to an immeasurably more wonderful reality doesn’t depend so much on the arcane books he reads as on a source much closer to home. A cat-doting woman who wishes her beloved felines would talk to her is shaken when she realises what they have been trying to communicate all along.
Through intriguing story-lines and revelations, Michie offers life-enhancing insights with the same heart-warming benevolence that pervades his Dalai Lama's Cat books. How better to gently unwind at the end of the day - and to prepare for the infinite possibilities we may encounter in the realms of our dreams?

Historia
In 1923, 17-year-old Esther arrives in Köln "with a hardened heart as her sole luggage.” Thus begins a 22-year journey, woven against the European Holocaust and the Hindu Kali Yuga (the “Age of Darkness” when human civilization degenerates spiritually), in search of a place of sanctuary. Throughout her travails, using cunning and shrewdness, Esther relies on her masterful tailoring skills to help mask her Jewish heritage, navigate war-torn Europe, and emigrate to India. Esther’s traveling companion and the novel’s narrator is Ganesha, the elephant-headed Hindu God....

In a steam-filled diner in a college town, Flannery Jansen catches sight of something more beautiful than she's ever seen: a graduate student, reading. The 17-year-old, new to everything around her - college, the East Coast, bodies of literature, and the sexual flurries of student life - is shocked by her desire to follow this wherever it will take her.

He accepts a mission to carry two ancient, secret texts across the Himalayas to safety.

Historia
What if we all woke one day to discover that every act of generosity was followed, soon after, by an unexpected windfall? If theft or betrayal led to rapid calamity? Within minutes, the effects of instant karma would be felt by each one of us. Within hours it wouldn’t just be ordinary folks trying to figure out the new order—it would be everyone from the President down. Instant Karma is the story of that day. An extraordinary vision, and early adopters are quick to capitalise on the new dynamics while karma change deniers vehemently dig in their heels.

delightful and delicate
I picked this up on a whim and was sublimely rewarded. The author's understated reading is perfect for this collection of daydreams disguised as reality. A Twilight Zone for the Buddhist set.
I will read more by this author even though I'm opposed to techno thrillers and stories about talking cats.

Very good short stories - examines our lives
After going through the Dalai Lama's Cat series, I was expecting something similar. This was more forthright than I expected - not as PG, but more R rating level. Insightful too. As usual, the stories are good, unpacking a bunch of "think about this" ideas in them and have me reflect on my own life and where I am in my own situations, expectations, goals, disappointments and successes while I am reading an interesting story about someone else. The humanity, empathy, and observations from another angle are what I appreciate. Sometimes it's a struggle to find good books, and after a spate of reading dreck it's nice to read a book written by someone who uses their brain cells and offers new information to think about.
