Carnival of the Mind

Welcome to the Carnival, where everything is possible and nothing is as it seems.

When Matthew wakes up in a bizarre wasteland with no memories or idea how he arrived there, he knows only one thing: he needs to escape and return to reality. But this is no mere dream. In his exploration, he quickly discovers that the Carnival allows him to do extraordinary things, and tell almost any story he wants to tell. The more he grasps this world's nature, and the closer he is to being able to leave it, the more seductive it becomes.

He is joined on his quest by a young woman named June, who arrived long before he did, and has no intention of ever leaving. Together they could become masters of this dreamscape—or break it entirely.

Carnival of the Mind is an exploration of dreams, delusion, and the stories we tell ourselves to give our lives meaning. It is also a novel about how deconstructing those stories can lead to either freedom or ruin.
