What Dreams May Come: A Novel
A classic novel of love after death, from one our greatest  fantasy writers. The premise is deceptively simple: Chris Neilson  has died in a car accident, but his life-force--his spirit--is  still conscious of this plane of reality. And he is still too in  love with his wife, Ann, to completely let go. She in turn does  not want to go on living without him, as each regards the other as  their soul mate. What Chris will do to get back with Ann after  she dies makes for one of the most unusual love stories ever told.  Even though the story can be enjoyed as pure fantasy, what makesWhat Dreams May Comeunique is how the author spent years  researching the subject of life after death. (An exhaustive  bibliography is included to verify this.) And while Matheson  admits that the characters are of course fictional, he also states  that "With few exceptions, every other detail is derived  exclusively from research." Whether, after reading this novel, one  believes in life after death is of course a matter of opinion. At  least you'll entertain the possibility that, even though we may  not live forever, true love can be eternal.--Stanley  Wiater--This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
