I didn't sleep a wink for 17 days. 17 Days, 17 nights, a sleepless world, what can you do? Before writing "Sleep", Haruki Murakami was forty years old. He encountered a low point in writing and life, and his heart gradually became hard and cold. He traveled to Greece and Türkiye for a month. The following spring, the freeze in his heart gradually softened, and he wrote this story almost in one go. "Sleep" describes the "extreme discovery" of people in an extreme state. It contains both Kafka's indifference and absurdity, and Edgar Allan Poe's thrilling suspense. It gives people a strong shock after reading it. "Sleep" is carefully illustrated by a famous German painter. Together with the beautiful text, it is known as "Haruki Murakami's most beautiful book so far." The Awakening of Haruki Murakami! In a sleepless world, what can you do?
