About this ebook
A novel set in a near-future world of hunger and hibernation: “[An] intriguing and timely premise . . . executed with verve.” —Alison Moore, Man Booker Prize finalist and author of Missing
The Earth’s resources are dwindling. The solution is The Sleep.
Inside a hibernating city, Ben struggles with his limited waking time and the disease stealing his wife from him. Watching over the sleepers, lonely janitor Peruzzi craves the family he never knew.
Everywhere, dissatisfaction is growing.
And the city is about to wake . . .
“A haunting vision of the near-future with expert world-building and rich complex characters.” —Temi Oh, Alex Award–winning author of More Perfect
“A challenging dystopia for our time.” —Aliya Whiteley, Arthur C. Clarke Award finalist and author of Skyward Inn
