The Dream Police by Dennis Cooper
A spare, unsettling novel that follows a young narrator whose interior life and erotic fascinations are invaded by a shadowy force that polices and manipulates dreams. Through fragmented, confessional prose the story blurs memory, fantasy and violence as the narrator becomes entangled in obsessive relationships and a creeping sense of surveillance and guilt. Themes of adolescence, desire, power and the porous boundary between sleep and waking drive a narrative that is both intimate and disorienting.
