Born and raised in St Diego, Karen Thompson Walker is an assistant professor of creative writing at the University of Oregon. Her award winning first novel, The Age of Miracles, was a New York Times best seller. The library has just acquired her second novel The Dreamers. An ordinary town is transformed by a mysterious illness that triggers perpetual sleep. The Dreamers is written in luminous prose and is a startling, provocative and beautiful novel about the possibilities contained within our waking days, and even more within our dreams.
