YA
Dreamhunter Laura Hame and her family mobilize an inquiry into the use of nightmares in the "education" of convicts. The story is rife with suspense and notable for its vivid mythic imagery, including the motif of Lazarus. An involving--and challenging--read that's outstanding in its ability to make readers think poetically and analytically about human nature.
