Description

Sleepaway A Novel by Kevin Prufer is a haunting debut novel that explores a small-town America under siege. In 1984, mysterious mists begin to fall, causing people to slip into dreamless slumber from which most do not awaken. Those who wake live in fear of the next mist, and the next, each one more perilous than the last. As the town struggles to cope with the mounting number of sleepers, two young friends, Cora and Glass, embark on a journey that will test their bonds of friendship and family. With the air filling with ash and buildings rising outside town to accommodate the sleepers, the boundaries between life and death become increasingly blurred. This novel is an allegory for post-pandemic America, grappling with questions of identity, community, and resilience in the face of inexplicable horror.
