Life is but a Dream, by David Earle
Book Review by Bill Johnson
LIFE IS BUT A DREAM is a tale of an African American man who turns forty, celebrates his birthday with family and friends, goes to sleep that night after enjoying the pleasure of making love to his lovely wife and wakes up in a nightmare, his entire existence changed. Now he is an elderly Caucasian man in a hospital.
Roger Owen, an African American family man in the year 2011, awakens the morning after his fortieth birthday to discover himself inhabiting the body of Sydney Hamilton a Caucasian sixty -- six year old Welsh Harvard Professor of History whom he remembers nothing of, in what is now the year 2125.
Roger's entire life up to that fateful evening in October 2011 is soon revealed as only a memory of a past life. His odyssey of this strange new existence in the twenty -- second century takes him from an insane asylum to the Care of an attractive, beguiling, empathetic psychologist named Dr. Jessica Wynn, to the acceptance of both lost lives and the pursuit of finding his ancestors from his past life. Through it all he must also deal with unraveling the mystery of a secret he unknowingly holds as Professor Hamilton regarding the truth of a catastrophic world event that occurred in 2115 that now threatens his life by a man who seeks to kill him.
Life Is But a Dream will hold you in suspense from beginning to end. The author spins a tale of mystery and intrigue much like the stories written by Alfred Hitchcock. As you follow the trials and tribulations of Roger Owen trapped in the body of a man in a world he knows nothing of you will be constantly held on the edge of your seat wondering what will happen next.
This story will make you wonder how you would react if it happened to you. Would you be able to handle life in a strange new world that is completely strange to you? How would you feel if you were suddenly transported from a virile forty year old man and into the body of a sixty -- six year old man whose body has never done the things you used to do? This book will bring you face to face with your own mortality. I truly enjoyed this story and found it hard to put down; I would give it five stars. Enjoy!
