About This Book

A weary traveler whose car was stolen arrives at an isolated village and is sheltered by a plump, motherly woman and her family. As he encounters a curious red‑haired girl and a taciturn neighbor, he learns that the townspeople share recurring nighttime journeys to a place called Armagon, where they attend palaces and witness disturbing events; the villagers’ dream rituals bleed into daytime conversation and odd routines. The story follows his growing disorientation as communal dream‑life and waking life blur, producing quiet hospitality threaded with an undercurrent of unease.
