**Featured on BBC Radio 4's A Good Read** '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 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. 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, The Shapeless
Unease is a startlingly insightful exploration of memory, writing
and influence, death and grief, and the will to survive. 'A delight
to read... ineffably rewarding' OBSERVER '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 'How can a book about a sensual
deprivation be so sensuous and so full? ... it seemed to give my
sleep resonance and poetry. What a beautiful book.' TESSA HADLEY
