Benjamin, Chloe
Entry updated 28 June 2021. Tagged: Author.
(? - ) US author whose first novel, The Anatomy of Dreams (2014), edges into the fantastic through its protagonists' obsessive quest to acquire lucid dreaming skills (see Virtual Reality), guided and perhaps deluded by a shamanic researcher.
The Immortalists (2018) similarly engages its four protagonists – who in 1969 have had their futures told by a psychic capable of actual Precognition – in quests for meaning; of greatest sf interest is the research project, undertaken by one of the siblings, into longevity (see Immortality). [JC]
