Om den här e-boken
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 and Jose 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.
