About Book
This is Dr. Peters favorite book. A surreal world conjured through shamanic visions raising several delicate questions about life and death and world beyond. Written in tradition of Asian mystics, this is a powerful ode to dreams that brings alive primordial drama of lust and longing, and weaves an extraordinary tapestry of sacred and profane, mundane and virtual reality.
