The Dallergut Dream Department Store

About

What if there were a department store where dreams are sold — bottled, shelved, and purchased each night by sleeping customers who never remember the transaction? Penny is the newest employee at Dallergut's, learning to match the right dream to the right dreamer while navigating the store's eccentric staff and its mysteriously omniscient owner. Miye Lee builds a cozy fantasy world with the warmth and precision of a well-run shop, where every department — nightmares, recurring dreams, childhood memories — has its own logic and its own resident expert. The novel is gentle without being weightless, finding real emotion in the question of what our dreams reveal about what we need. A story about the hidden commerce of sleep — and the people who make sure you dream exactly what you didn't know you wanted.
