 Description

This entry contains the first part of the audiobook "Zbiralec sanj" (The dream collector) by author Evald Flisar and narrated by Boris Car (COBISS.SI-ID 304996867, ISBN 978-961-7279-68-9). John Gray is a successful psychoanalyst who has built a distinguished career and a new life in San Francisco. But after a stroke, he begins to suffer from nightmares that awaken a need to return to the place where it all began. He travels to his native Gerlinci in Prekmurje, where he grew up as Janez Grah, a boy nicknamed Little Bean. After the Second World War, he helped refugees secretly cross the border into Austria until he, too, was forced to leave his homeland. Now, after decades abroad, he returns to the memories he has long left behind. In the forest near his childhood home, he meets a mysterious white-haired man who prompts him to reflect on the past, truth and the stories we tell ourselves to make sense of our lives. His search for answers becomes a journey into the depths of memory and personal identity. "The dream collector" is a psychological novel with a philosophical dimension by Evald Flisar, exploring emigration, belonging, impermanence and the search for meaning. The story asks whether we can ever truly return home after so many years, and how much of our past lives on in the memories we carry with us.
