A lot has changed since I last read. Since then, Orr went to a couple more appointments but Orr is slowly coming to conclusion that Dr. Haber was taking advantage of him and his power to alter reality with his dreams. He confronts a lawyer about this, which she doesn't believe his story but is intrigued anyways. They then agree that the lawyer would visit their session as someone who is hired by the government to make sure that the activities in the session are within the human rights for the patient. They both arrive at the facility and they do the normal routine except Dr. Haber talks about overpopulation and how it is a bad situation before he puts Orr to sleep. Then, the reality changes and the lawyer gets completely frozen in shock. But after a while, the lawyer forgets and the visit ends...
This reminds me of some research I did beforehand on dreams and how it is important for the body and how they might be created so it was interesting to see the connections to real life studies to the book. Like how there is a light sleep and a deep sleep in real life and there is s-sleep, d-sleep, and all kinds of sleep in the book. It's very interesting to compare the two and see the similarities with them! Overpopulation was a big problem in this book and in real life. Overpopulation was a concern for many and it has undesirable effects for Dr. Haber so he decided to decrease the population because of that. Using, the power Orr has with his dreams affecting reality, he decreased 7 billion people to just one hundred thousand people with one dream! Afterwards, he was able to drink some alcohol that wasn't available earlier because of supplies being low to help everyone. This reminds of the struggles of housing and supplies that we have in real life because we have a huge population and we also have to worry about the threat of a nuclear war, just like what happened in the book... I will comment on Rachna's & Matthew's blogs!
