Respected physician John Dolittle swaps human patients for animal ones as his parrot Polynesia teaches him the secret of talking to the animals. His fame spreads and he travels to Africa to treat a monkey epidemic. Setting out with his favorite crew of creatures, Dolittle must face trial after trial; being shipwrecked, escaping the king of Jolligingki and figuring out what do do with a pushmi-pullyu, the shy two-headed gazelle-unicorn cross.

    Two cosmic Deities, grand architects of their own prized galaxy, have discovered that one of their creations is out of control. After the largest star in their galaxy collapses, it rebounds as a black hole that swells to consume them and their cherished creations before they can escape. Cast adrift in space and time, their souls are scattered, and they separately experience life in the denser planes. Many incarnations lead them to converge on a little place called Earth, where time and matter are thick and slow: a place where souls are plentiful, and power struggles run amok. Beauty, limitation, and challenge bring them closer to finding each other, sparking memories about themselves they thought were gone... Can they ever remember who they are? Or will they be forever lost, cycling through life after life for eternity?

    "Hypnos" is a short story by American horror fiction writer H. P. Lovecraft, penned in March 1922 and first published in the May 1923 issue of National Amateur."Hypnos" is a first-person narrative, written from the perspective of an unnamed character living in Kent and later London, England. The narrator writes that he fears sleep, and is resolved to write his story down lest it drive him further mad, regardless of what people think after reading it.Lovecraft dedicated this story to his longtime friend Samuel Loveman, who featured in the dreams that inspired Lovecraft's "The Statement of Randolph Carter" and "Nyarlathotep". Loveman suggested it was the best thing Lovecraft had ever written up to that point in time, as mentioned by Lovecraft in a letter.The plot-germ of the story is found in Lovecraft's commonplace book, in an early entry reading, "The man who would not sleep--dares not sleep--takes drugs to keep himself awake. Finally falls asleep-& something happens."
