Vitus Dreams by Adam Craig

An explorer dreams of a sea and a land beyond that can be found on no map ... A naval officer becomes lost inside maps of his own making, his wife lost inside her pleas that someone search for her husband ... And, as a singer struggles to make sense of the ordinary things around her, a hitman is trapped in an endless bid to escape ... Meanwhile, two complete strangers plod through their day-to-day lives as they pour their hearts into writing a novel - but which one is the fictional character and which the author? An ever-shifting kaleidoscope, by turns moving and funny, intense and tender, Vitus Dreams draws you into a place where our basic assumptions about the real and the concrete are shattered to leave us with no choice but to rely on instinct and the people around us, if they exist.
A fresh, exciting novel that is written in a non-traditional styleThe book itself is a work of art to behold and the writing reminds me of Virgina Woolf's modernism mixed with the best elements of science fiction. Highly recommend this to anyone looking for something a bit different-thanks Adam Craig and all at Cinnamon Press for publishing a book so fresh and exciting! - Roary, Amazon 5 Star review
