Dreambender is a new book by Ronald Kidd. Everyone in the City is given a job by the choosers—keeper, catcher, computer. Callie Crawford is a computer. She works with numbers: putting them together, taking them apart. Her work is important, but sometimes she wants more. Jeremy Finn is a dreambender. His job is to deal with people’s dreams. He and others like him quietly remove thoughts of music and art to keep the people in the City from becoming too focused (專注) on themselves and their own feelings rather than on the world. They need to keep the world safe from another warming. But Jeremy thinks music is beautiful, and when he puts himself into a dream of Callie singing, he becomes very interested with her. He begins to wonder if there is more to life than being safe. Giving up everything he has, he sets off to find her in the real world. Together, they will try their luck in the real world. But how far will they go to realize their own dreams?
