Description
Pillow Man is an odd romance that begins among the Egyptian cotton sheets and goosedown pillows of a department store. William has a steady job in retail, but his life feels unfulfilling. Lucy's career is a portfolio of uncertain projects, and her love life is equally unsatisfactory.
Despite their different lives, both William and Lucy share a terrible memory from the past, one that changes depending on who you were and where you stood at the time. As they navigate this shared recollection, they must confront the difficult questions of what it means to be comfortable, and whether we can ever truly find solace in our beds.
This London novel explores the complexities of love, darkness, and the human search for meaning in a world that often feels broken. With its thoughtful exploration of bedtime and the everyday, Pillow Man is a thought-provoking and deeply human story about finding comfort in an uncertain world.
