เรื่องสั้นสยิว 20

My boyfriend, Christopher Linden, was short of 20 thousand dollars for his medical treatment. To get the money as soon as possible, I participated in a rich man's game onboard a lavish cruise. I didn't bat an eye as I jumped into the ocean to search for a bracelet one of their female companions had dropped in the water. As I choked on the ocean water, I heard the man in the lead mock me, saying, "I've seen plenty of the dirty things people are willing to do for money, but you take the cake. You're even willing to give up your life for it." Someone teased, "Your girlfriend doesn't like money and is willing to forgo everything to care for you. Do you love her?" He snorted. "She's just a peasant from the countryside; I'm only fooling around with her. You have no idea how coarse her hands are—they disgust me whenever she touches me. How could I possibly fall for her?" I turned ashen at his words. He was Christopher, who was supposed to be wheelchair-bound. He was also supposed to be too broke for surgery. The peasant from the countryside he was talking about was me.

Et si les rêves étaient en fait des myriades de dimensions parallèles ? Chaque fois que l’on s’endort, notre esprit crée un monde éphémère qui se désagrège à notre réveil. Mais Isobel possède un don particulier : celui de se projeter dans ces dimensions fragiles, de les altérer, voire même d’en restituer les images dans le monde de « l’éveil ». À 20 ans, elle cultive un quotidien simple et solitaire dans un petit village des Highlands. Jamais elle n’aurait pu prédire que cette femme, aperçue fugacement sur les rives de son loch local, fasse à ce point basculer sa vie. Pourtant, celle-ci s’invite dans ses songes et l’obsède. Pour lever le voile sur ce phénomène inédit, Isobel devra suivre un fil d’ariane entre rêves, veille et cauchemars.
