Sleep Demons: An Insomniac's Memoir by Bill Hayes

Synopsis:

A skilled and graceful debut that variously reads like a journey of scientific discovery, a personal memoir, and a literary episode of Ripley’s Believe It or Not. An intelligent, beautifully written book, Hayes’ curious hybrid will delight readers who snore past dawn as well as those who pace away while the midnight oil burns. Praise for Sleep Demons: An Insomniac's Memoir “Hayes, a lifelong insomniac, pursues sleep as avidly and lyrically as Nabokov pursued butterflies.” —San Francisco Chronicle
