We read this as a group read over at a horror club I belong to.  We are permitted non-spoiler comments prior to the discussion day.  The comments were WOW!, one after another and I believe I recall a Fantastic thrown in there too.Imagine a middle age man, married to a beautiful woman, father of a school age girl, professional photographer and with severe sleep deprivation which causes him not to dream.  He had undergone diagnosis and treatment at a local hospital, but nothing seems to help.  His name is Charlie.Until one night when he dreams in black and white.  His dream is so realistic to him that he investigates this future happening.  Yes, he begins to dream future event.  Most are not exactly how the future event happens, but it does happen.  He begins to take photographs in black and white reflecting the event.  His photographs become "popular" let us say.  Aw, then you see, Mr. Little has grabbed your interest and doesn't let go until the very last word.There are many things that are typical about the relationship between Charlie, his wife and child.  There is a lot of indifference.  I believe he loves both his wife and daughter, but his main focus is not his family.The story is ultimately a love story.  I suppose it is sad, as I read in another review, but for me it was "love conquers all"  I gave this powerful novella 5 starsIf you enjoyed this John R. Little story, you might enjoy his story, The Memory Tree.  I read it earlier this year and it too was a powerful story that draws you into the story right away.
