A fascinating look at author J. W. Dunne’s controversial model of multidimensional time, based on precognitive dreams. The proposed concept accounted for insights into higher consciousness and many of life’s mysteries.
J.W. Dunne's thought-provoking book, 'An Experiment with Time' delves into the realm of precognition and presents a groundbreaking theory of time known as "Serialism." Drawing on his own experiences, Dunne explores the phenomenon of precognitive dreams, where future personal events are foreseen by the dreamer. Building upon this foundation, he delves into the concept of multiple dimensions of time, each accompanied by a higher level of consciousness. Through his meticulous experiments and reflections, Dunne uncovers the intricacies of our perception of time, delving into the realms of past, present, and future.

Tolkien's concern with time - past and present, real and faerie - captures the wonder of travel into other worlds and other times. This work shows that he was not just a mythmaker and writer of escapist fantasy but a man whose relationship to his own century was troubled and critical.
