We may dream, while still alive, of dying. But the dream is soon forgotten as are the edges and corners of a re-lived life of which we dream. It is buried in the unconscious. We know that life fades into death but, in what degree, does life re-live itself as it dreams of dying? In "The Ghost of Memory", the internationally acclaimed novelist, Wilson Harris, poses these and other questions in a chameleon fiction that explores the blurred boundaries between our waking and dream lives.
