About the Book

Like a contemporary Rip Van Winkle, Simon awakes only to find he has been inventing another life. He lives where he has no memory of living. There are astonishing towers he has built of steel and broken ceramic in Sarah’s Melbourne backyard. He is a man caught between two very different versions of himself. Driven to understand what has been happening, Simon turns to hypnosis and film and to the woman who says she is his lover. Toccata and Rain is built of fugues and fractured perceptions. It is a mysterious and erotically charged narrative of encounters and ambiguities within a forgotten life.
