A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Now in paperback, the bestselling author of Communion revisits his groundbreaking work on alien abduction to explore the ultimate meaning behind today’s increasing reports of UFO sightings, close encounters, alien implants, crop circles, animal mutilations – and what it means for our near-future.

In 1987 writer Whitley Strieber exposed the world to the truth about alien abduction in his landmark memoir, Communion. For the first time in years, Strieber revisits his encounter with alien intelligences-but now dramatically widens his search to explore how "the visitors" connect with today's persistent and globe-spanning reports of anomalous phenomena, such as crop circles, cattle mutilations, UFO sightings, alien abductions, near-death experiences, close encounters, and unexplained bodily implants.

In his magisterial style, Strieber contextualizes these bizarre and unsettling reports with his own childhood memories of strange schools, sinister experiments, and family secrets. In exploring today's most convincing cases of unexplained phenomena, Strieber reasons that they are not unrelated events. Nor are they the result of mass delusion. In some of his most persuasive writing, Strieber argues that the wave of mysterious episodes marks a transition that humanity is undergoing right now. Against all conscious understanding, we are experiencing a broadened awareness of dimensions of reality that exist beyond our current perceptions.

Revue de presse

“There's enough compelling material to make even the rigid skeptic ask questions.”
—Jeff Ayers, Associated Press

“No matter your beliefs, Strieber's writing has impact...Everyone interested in UFOs, other dimensions, or the mysteries of life will want to read Strieber's new work.”
—Library Journal

“Interesting and challenging...Don’t miss it.”
—Edgar Mitchell, Apollo 14 astronaut

“In these pages we have the privilege to watch a great author return to his most famous text and draw out from it more meaning and more secrets...I am not certain that I have ever encountered a mystical writer this fearless, this psychologically astute, and this darn clear. Be careful what you read in these pages, then. Both the risks and the rewards are very real...”
—from the foreword by Jeffrey J. Kripal, chair of Religious Studies, Rice University

“Amazing! I devoured this wonderful, important, thought-provoking book at a sitting. Whitley Strieber has done an incredible job here, weaving science with deeply-felt personal experience to tell a captivating, fast-moving story that significantly advances our understanding of one of the greatest mysteries of our time.”
—Graham Hancock, author of Fingerprints of the Gods
