Description
Sleepless has changed how I feel about sleep. For Annabel Abbs, it was a journey that led to a profound discovery: her Night Self.
As she navigated the darkness of winter 2020, Annabel found solace in the night, and discovered that many women throughout history have done the same - from radical philosophers to subversive artists. Drawing on the latest science, which shows we are more imaginative and reflective at night, Annabel set out to explore the potential of her own Night Self.
This moving and revelatory book invites us to rethink our relationship with sleep, and to find freedom in the darkness. With a series of remarkable experiences that took her from Singapore to the Arctic Circle, Sleepless is a powerful exploration of the human spirit.
