<p><em>With a brief memory of your past what meaning do your dreams hold?</em></p><p> </p><p>In the many questions that Kaeda asks herself this is the overarching one in a life riddled with confusion and deep thought. An adopted San Francisco student in 2036 Kaeda is quiet and analytical—intellectualizing most of her feelings rather than experiencing them.</p><p>However Kaeda holds a destructive vulnerability: her past puzzles her. She has only brief memories of her childhood—a frequent issue when Kaeda attempts to piece together her past. Though to either help or hinder this Kaeda has an unlikely ability: her dreams are abnormally vivid; scenes of bright images play inside of Kaeda's mind every second that she sleeps.</p><p>In November 2036 fragments of Kaeda's past become clearer—and her dreams replicate this. As Kaeda's memories of her past and vivid dreams begin to interlink what conclusions can she draw despite the gaps in her recollection?</p><p> </p><p><strong>Content warning:</strong> This book includes references to suicide depression substance abuse mental hospitalization and depictions of issues concerning sleep and dreams.
