$15.00Intriguing piece of literary criticism, also fun to read. Shields not only explores the future of literature, he convincingly argues that fiction , specifically the novel, no longer adequately expresses what it means to be alive in today’s world. Instead he urges writers to ignore the (alleged) boundaries between fiction and nonfiction in favor of a new genre that draws equal inspiration from memoir, reality TV, hiphop, and standup comedy (among others).

From bestselling author Charlie Huston comes a novel about the fears that find us all during dark times and the courage and sacrifice that can save us in the face of unimaginable odds. Parker Hass just wants a safer world for his wife and daughter, so he joins the LAPD to make it happen. But when people start coming down with insomnia, Park is tasked with stopping the flow of Dreamer- the only drug that can make the sleepless sleep. Drawn into a world of deep secrets and twisted agendas, Park only becomes more firm in his belief that justice must be served. Gripping, unnerving, exhilarating, and haunting, Sleepless is well worth staying up for.
