Description
An insomnia pandemic terrorizes near-future Vancouver in this dystopian nightmare for fans of cerebral end-of-the world stories like P.D. James' The Children of Men andJose Saramago's Blindness.
"The creepiest book of the year." -- Slate
Dawn breaks over Vancouver and no one in the world has slept the night before, or almost no one. A few people -- perhaps 1 in 10,000 -- can still sleep, and they've all shared the same golden dream.
After 6 days of absolute sleep deprivation, psychosis will set in. After 4 weeks, the body will die. In the interim, panic ensues and a bizarre new world arises in which those previously on the fringes of society take the lead.
Paul, a writer, continues to sleep while his partner Tanya disintegrates before his eyes, and the new world swallows the old one whole... in this literary dystopian thriller that puts a terrifying spin on zombie apocalypse fiction.
