Qaraq: 1001, The Reincarnation Chronicles, is a visionary tour de force, a dizzying romp through history, science fiction, nature, mysticism, myth, and psychology. In the course of this tale, you will be taken into the memories of not only people, but of creatures, and atoms, and human-made structures. It’s as detailed and time-spanning as Arthur C. Clarke’s 2001: A Space Odyssey, and shares similar notes of psychedelic, witty, mind-boggling, surrealism.

At the center is Sarah Fleming. She has disturbing visions that place her in other times and faraway places. They are often violent, lurid, and unsettling. She thinks she’s losing her mind. As well, Sarah is pregnant and her husband, Amar, doesn’t want the baby. Though Amar is interested in her visions, she’s hesitant to share them because their relationship is already strained. It’s only through the help of her therapist and a group of neighbors, that Sarah begins to unravel the mystery of these visions, and to understand a past life history with Amar. Hang on to your seats. You gotta pay attention with this one!
