What if paradigms do not shift as we understand the world conceptually different. What if such new concepts, if universally comprehensive, produce switch points that force a branching path into an alternate world in the world tree. Yeah, enough of that ( ) Jeremy Bremen es profesor de Matemáticas y tiene un secreto: durante toda su vida ha sufrido la maldición de poder leer las mentes. Conoce los pensamientos más secretos, los miedos y los deseos de los demás como si fueran los suyos propios. Durante años, su esposa Gail, también telépata, ha servido como escudo entre Jeremy y el peso terrible de ese poder. Pero Gail agoniza y Jeremy es de nuevo vulnerable al caótico fluir de pensamientos ajenos que amenazan con destrozar su cordura. This is one of Simmons' less-successful works, imo. It uses math and physics to try to explain the mind, thought, memory, consciousness, personality. That's difficult enough, for a left-brained human like myself. The other problem is trying to suspend disbelief in a so-called perfect hetero relationship. Dispersed in chapters between those two authorial concepts is a lot of violence. Meh. I'm a big fan of Dan Simmons and keen to read his fairly extensive back catalogue, rather than just pick up the new releases as they come out. I was therefore excited to find this (imported from the USA) on the shelf in a local book store.

Jeremy Bremen has a secret.nbsp;nbsp;All his life he's been cursed with the ability to read minds.nbsp;nbsp;He knows the secret thoughts, fears, and desires of others as if they were his own.nbsp;nbsp;For years, his wife, Gail, has served as a shield between Jeremy and the burden of this terrible knowledge.nbsp;nbsp;But Gail is dying, her mind ebbing slowly away, leaving him vulnerable to the chaotic flood of thought that threatens to sweep away his sanity.nbsp;nbsp;Now Jeremy is on the run--from his mind, from his past, from himself--hoping to find peace in isolation.nbsp;nbsp;Instead he witnesses an act of brutality that propels him on a treacherous trek across a dark and dangerous America.nbsp;nbsp;From a fantasy theme park to the lair of a killer to a sterile hospital room in St. Louis, he follows a voice that is calling him to witness the stunning mystery at the heart of mortality.
