Exploring the nature of dreams and consciousness, this meta-memoir intertwines the author's vivid recollections of dreams with philosophical reflections on figures like Aristotle, Freud, and Hegel. The narrative features the author's cats and delves into the historical context of psychiatry, particularly through the character of Eudemus, a figure celebrated for his dream. The two novellas question the meaning of dreams, especially nightmares, while journeying from ancient Greece to modern-day Venice, ultimately seeking the essence of the soul amid the "night of the world."
