Book description
Lavie Tidhar's A Man Lies Dreaming is a daring and deeply unsettling audiobook that reimagines the boundaries of historical fiction through the lens of dark fantasy. Set within the walls of Auschwitz, the story follows Shomer, a pulp fiction writer who survives the camp's horrors by escaping into vivid dreams. In his imagined world, Adolf Hitler-reduced to the alias "Wolf"-lives as a broken, impoverished private investigator scraping by in wartime London.
Tidhar, known for blending genres and challenging narrative conventions, crafts a tale that is as much about survival as it is about justice. The audiobook format enhances the emotional weight of the story, with narration that shifts between the bleak reality of the camp and the gritty, noir-tinged alternate reality Shomer creates. This contrast is handled with care, allowing listeners to fully experience the tension between despair and imagination.
The novel doesn't shy away from the moral complexities of its premise. By placing Hitler in a dehumanized, powerless state, Tidhar explores themes of retribution, guilt, and the long shadow of history. Yet, it's Shomer's voice-both as a dreamer and a witness-that gives the story its humanity. His pulp-inspired alternate world becomes a vehicle for processing trauma, making the fantastical elements feel deeply rooted in personal and collective memory.
Tidhar's background in international speculative fiction shines through in the novel's layered storytelling and genre-blending style. Fans of his previous works like Osama or The Violent Century will recognize his ability to merge historical weight with imaginative subversion. The audiobook succeeds in making these complex layers accessible, drawing listeners into a narrative that is as thought-provoking as it is harrowing.
A Man Lies Dreaming is not an easy listen, nor should it be. It's a powerful meditation on the resilience of the human spirit, wrapped in a revenge fantasy that refuses to offer simple answers. For those willing to sit with its discomfort, it's an unforgettable experience.
