"Jeremy Bremen has a secret. All his life he's been cursed with the ability to read minds. He knows the secret thoughts, fears, and desires of others as if they were his own. For years, his wife, Gail, has served as a shield between Jeremy and the burden of this terrible knowledge. But Gail is dying, her mind ebbing slowly away, leaving him vulnerable to the chaotic flood of thoughts that threatens to sweep away his sanity. Now Jeremy is one the run--from his mind, from his past, from himself--hoping to find peace in isolation. Instead he witnesses an act of brutality that propels him on a treacherous trek across a dark and dangerous America. From a fantasy theme park to the lair of a killer to a sterile hospital room in St. Louis, he follows a voice that is calling him to witness the stunning mystery at the heart of mortality.
"Impressive and thoughtful."--Publisher's Weekly.
"A spellbinding, startling book."--The Indianapolis Star

Hardback: 9½" x 6¼". Condition: UNSPECIFIED. Cover Art: Adrian Chesterman (illustrator). 1st UK Edition. © 1992: A stand-alone novel by Dan Simmons. 1st UK edition, 1st printing:- Synopsis: All his life, Jeremy Bremen has been cursed with the unwanted ability to read minds. He can hear the thoughts behind the placid expressions of strangers, colleagues and friends: their dreams, their fears, their most secret desires. For years his wife Gail has served as a shield between Jeremy and the world's neurobabble; her presence has protected him from the intrusive thoughts of those around him and allowed him to continue his work as one of the world's leading mathematicians. But now Gail is dying and Jeremy comes face to face with the horror of his own omniscience. Vulnerable and alone, he is exposed to the chaotic flood of others' thoughts, which threatens to fill him with the world's pain and longing, and sweep away his sanity. His mathematical studies have taken him to the threshold of knowledge and enabled him to map uncharted regions of the mind, to recognise the mind itself as a mirror of the universe. But his studies have taught him nothing at all about the loss of love and trust, and about the loneliness of mortality. Now Jeremy is on the run - from his mind, from his past, and from himself - and his treacherous odyssey takes him from a fantasy theme park to the mean streets of an uncaring city, from the lair of a killer to the gaudy casinos of Las Vegas, and at last to a sterile hospital room in search of the voice that is calling him to the secret of existence itself:- Review(s): "A stunning, vividly imagined and thought-provoking novel, 'The Hollow Man' is an unforgettable journey into the heart of mortality, and shows award-winning author Dan Simmons at the height of his extraordinary powers":- (original cost £15.99).
