Beschreibung

<p><b>**Featured on BBC Radio 4's <i>A Good Read</i>**</b><br><br> <b>'A profound meditation on language and loss and time, and on how we construct ourselves through stories. And it's painful. And it's beautiful. And I love it.' NATHAN FLIER</b><br><br> Samantha Harvey's insomnia arrived, seemingly, from nowhere; for a year she has spent her nights chasing sleep that rarely comes. She's tried everything to appease it. Nothing is helping.<br><br> What happens when one of the basic human needs goes unmet? For Samantha Harvey, extreme sleep deprivation resulted in a raw clarity about life itself. Original and profound, <i>The Shapeless Unease</i> is a startlingly insightful exploration of memory, writing and influence, death and grief, and the will to survive.<br><br> <b>'A delight to read... ineffably rewarding' <i>OBSERVER</i></b><br><br> '<b>Easily one of the truest and best books I've read about what it's like to be alive now, in this country' MAX PORTER</b><br><br> <b>'How can a book about a sensual deprivation be so sensuous and so full?</b> ...<b> it seemed to give my sleep resonance and poetry.</b> <b>What a beautiful book.' TESSA HADLEY</b></p>
