This book was described to me so my details are a bit shoddy. I'll do my best to describe it though
- The book opens with a woman finishing a meal, leaving a tip and fetching a cab back to her home. She is in New York City (I believe).
- When she arrives at her home, a dog speaks to her in English and informs her that her total existence is an illusion. She is in fact in some form of suspended animation in a spaceship. Prior to being placed in her suspended animation, the computer governing her brainwaves is commanded to keep her sane in case of danger. The spaceship is in some kind of danger and she is given the option by the dog: she can stay in her peaceful illusion, but die shortly or reawaken to the real world to face whatever dangers await her.
- The woman doesn't believe the talking dog and believes she is just a bit delusional. In order to prove her own existence to herself, she hails a cab and goes for a ride. She wishes to cross into some other part of town, but the cab driver informs her that he can not take her there. He informs her that that part of town does not exist anymore.
Those are the only details I know. I'd really appreciate any leads.
Thanks!
