Publisher's Synopsis
In a world at war, the Dream Archipelago marks a neutral zone, a lure to the the young men on both sides of the conflict. In this interlinked collection of stories, Christopher Priest explores war, relationships and forms of reality. A soldier comes to doubt that the right is on his side; a young woman remembers peaceful times in the archipelago; a man discovers the evil that women can do to each other. Over all looms the time vortex which makes the reality of this world so different from our own.
Newly revised and added to by the author, and published in book form for the first time, THE DREAM ARCHIPELAGO shows a writer at the height of his powers.
