Between (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781257375271)

What happens when dreams become more real than reality? Twenty-two-year-old Artist has spent years trapped in a gray existence-mindless data entry by day, empty wasteland dreams by night. Then a mysterious girl with a violin made of starlight appears in his sleep, transforming his barren dreamscape into floating gardens of impossible beauty. Justine feels more real than anyone he's ever met in his waking life. Their shared dreams become elaborate worlds where they dance among the stars and fall deeper in love each night. But when Artist discovers Justine playing violin in a downtown park, the boundaries between sleeping and waking begin to dissolve completely. Coffee shop workers remember conversations that never happened. Impossible flowers appear on pillows. Reality bends around their love-until suddenly, Justine vanishes from both worlds entirely, leaving Artist to question whether their perfect love was real or just an elaborate creation of his lonely mind. A haunting exploration of connection in an age of isolation, Between Dreams and Waking asks whether love can transcend the boundaries of consciousness itself. This is a story about finding someone who sees the magic in your name, the beauty in your dreams, and the person you truly are beneath the surface of ordinary life. Some loves are too powerful for just one reality to contain. Written in collaboration with AI, exploring what happens when human creativity and artificial intelligence work together to tell the most human story of all: finding love in impossible places.
