Jagged Dreams

C. C. Saint-Clair

Jagged Dreams targets two social evils, homophobia and incest, and though it is also about love and commitment, its greatest contribution lies in the intelligent and sensitive handling of the issue of abuse.

Emilie finds her lover, Tamara, face down and unconscious near her Jeep. It soon becomes apparent that a violent blow to the head is the cause. Beyond the fear of possible complications not yet ruled out by Tamara’s doctor, Emilie and the police need more clues than they have regarding the attacker’s identity and motive.

Dreams emerge, deep from inside Tamara’s disturbed and fragmented, drug induced sleep.

Triggered by past vignettes in Tamara’s life, some of these dreams retain the sensual quality of the moment: lust, love, and tenderness in the vineyards of Bordeaux while others morph into nightmares.

Jagged Dreams is about the disturbing reality that becomes Tamara’s during the time she spends in the ward, inside her bed, inside her head, while her thoughts go on, sliding and slithering away from her.
