Einstein's Dreams

Einstein's Dreams is a series of dreams about places/worlds in which time moves differently. In one world,a lifetime is a single day. In another, time is a dimension just like 'up' and you can view or travel down this dimension. In another, each city has its own time. In some cities, time runs faster. In others it runs more slowly. The cities cannot communicate. Each world is 'situated' in a town in Switzerland and is presented through the thoughts and feelings of its residents. "It is at once intellectually provocative and touching and comic and so very beautifully written." Salman Rushdie.
