Summary This work of fiction by leading contemporary French author Hélène Cixous is about the most implacable of human certainties - death. But what if death did not inevitably spell the end of life? Hyperdream invests this fragile, tentative suspension of disbelief with the sheer force of its poetic audacity, inventing a sort of magic telephone: a wireless lifeline against all the odds to the dearly departed. Cixous is widely read among general readers and students of feminism and literature
