The Dreamtime

By: JW Robitaille

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

Jay Hollins is finishing his MA in creative writing but unable to move on with his life because he is still reeling from a tragedy that spelled the death of his dreams. His college girlfriend, Cathy, diagnoses his malaise as postpartum depression and tells him he should start on a new story. He begins writing the story that haunts him–a story of young writers discovering their voices and themselves in the stories they write, the story of their friendship, and of the disastrous love affair that tears them apart. Like the Australian aborigines who believe they can dance the past to life in a ceremony called the dreamtime, in telling his story, Jay hopes to connect past and present and thereby make the future possible.
