Behind every face is a name, and every name has a story. They don’t all command headlines, but each of them matters. Their stories differ. Some are long; others are short.

When he isn’t around, he leaves an awful hole.” Is it chance that the right people are at the right place at the right time when we need them? Or does an unseen hand number our days and order our steps?

How do you critique a miracle? Writers often draw on dreams for their inspiration, and those dreams are often precognitive, foreshadowing upheavals in the writer's future. It means that literature may often be prophetic, and that standard critical approaches focused solely on an author's prior influences or present life context are inadequate to fully understand the miracle of literary creation. This exercise in "psychic deconstruction" examines the works and lives of six imaginative (and in most cases, dream-inspired) writers: Samuel Taylor Coleridge, Mary Shelley, J. R. R. Tolkien, ...
