    (5.00 from 1 review)
    We are reminded of the philosophers' questioning if life is actually a dream or as Edgar Allen Poe has so beautifully written "a dream within a dream". My suggestion is that you walk and laugh with author down his bizarre path and see the world in all its strangeness. Reviewed by Joan McNerney
