    About this ebook

    "Every night Rhoneh dreamed. And, but for during his Days in Adversity, he resided while awake entirely in his mind, elaborating on his dreams..." In this dystopian coming of age novella, three young men are slowly drawn out of their separate, isolated routines to engage with the increasingly strange demands of their society. As their lives intertwine, their dreams begin to bleed into reality; songs and voices summon them to unprecedented actions; and they find that the most vital secrets lie far closer than beyond their city's walls. Each of them has a choice to face: whether to squirm amid the mounting chaos, or to step forward and let a new change rise through them.
