“The Dream Attack & Daydream Fictions is a unique work that blends scientific rigor with philosophical depth and literary aesthetics, leading the reader on an unconventional journey. From a reader's perspective, this book is not merely a collection of stories but a thought experiment exploring the intersection of ontological astrophysics, topology, and consciousness.
The work questions the thin, permeable boundary between dreams and reality through eight interconnected stories. The author’s background as a physicist lends scientific weight to concepts like "topological relationships" and "connectionist integrity," while masterfully exploring the transitions between Mythos and Logos. In stories such as "Trojan 137" and "The Scarlet Letter," time and consciousness are constructed as intricate labyrinths. Each narrative is an ideal plane placed in the realm of reality.”

“The dream clung to her. Her sleep had been full of Jupiter ever since the survey last week: that overwhelming, unstoppable girth; the swirling patterns of the atmosphere, dark belts and light stripes rolling in circular rivers of ammonia crystal clouds; every shade of orange in the spectrum, from soft, sand-coloured regions to vivid streams of molten vermilion; the breathtaking speed of a ten-hour orbit, whipping around and around the planet like a spinning top; the opaque surface, simmering and roaring in century-old tempests. And the moons! The ancient, pockmarked skin of Callisto and the icy crust of Ganymede. The rusty cracks of Europa’s subterranean oceans. The volcanoes of Io, magma fireworks leaping up from the surface.”
