'Sleep Donation has a dreamlike beauty while remaining ominous and
off-kilter. Parts of it gave me nightmares' Stephen King An
epidemic of insomnia has left America crippled with exhaustion.
Thankfully the Slumber Corps agency provides a lifeline,
transfusing sleep to sufferers from healthy volunteers. Recruitment
manager Trish Edgewater, whose sister Dori was one of the first
victims of the disaster, has spent the last seven years enlisting
new donors. But when she meets the mysterious Donor Y and Baby A -
whose sleep can be universally accepted - her faith in the
organisation and in her own motives begins to unravel. Fully
illustrated and featuring a brand-new 'Nightmare Appendix', this
uncanny and prescient novella from the bestselling author of
Swamplandia! will haunt your sleepless nights. Praise for Sleep
Donation: 'Russell's ability to balance the quirky and the absurd
with psychological acumen...turns this unbelievable world into
something more than dreamlike' NPR 'Russell writes with such
assurance and speed that she puts the reader under a spell for the
duration of her story' New York Times 'Russell has a keen sense of
dramatic timing and an even sharper ability to turn an internal
state into its own weather system' Boston Globe
