The Kin of Ata Are Waiting for You is part love story, part science fiction, at once Jungian myth and utopian allegory.

"Truly unforgettable!"--San Francisco Chronicle

The kin of Ata live only for the dream. Their work, their art, their love are designed in and by their dreams, and their only aim is to dream higher dreams. Into the world of Ata comes a desperate man, who is first subdued and then led on the spiritual journey that, sooner or later, all of us must make.

"A masterful novel . . . a beautiful, symbolic journey of the soul, the journey of a serious dreamer."--Berkely Monthly
