Sally Rooney: 'A series of fleeting images and memories ... united by the high intelligence and beauty of Hardwick's prose.'Rediscover a lost American classic: Sleepless Nights, a kaleidoscopic scrapbook of one woman's memories, here reissued with a new introduction by Eimear McBride.I am alone here in New York, no longer a we ...First published in 1979, Sleepless Nights is a unique collage of fiction and memoir, letters and essays, portraits and dreams. It is more than the story of a life: it is Elizabeth Hardwick's experience of womanhood in the twentieth century. Escaping her childhood home of Kentucky, the narrator arrives at a bohemian hotel in Manhattan filled with 'drunks, actors, gamblers ... love and alcohol and clothes on the floor.' Here begin the erotic affairs and dinner parties, the abortions and heartbreaks, the friendships and 'people I have buried'. Here are luminous sketches of characters she has met that illuminate the era's racism, sexism, and poverty. Above all, here is prose blurring into poetry, language to lose - and perhaps to find - yourself in. Society tries to write these lives before they are lived. It does not always succeed.

On Sleepless Nights presents a collection of poetry by Marie Zitnansky, written during the sleepless nights she endured following the death of her husband. He was a medical doctor who was much loved by his family and his patients. She could not imagine living without her husband, and for a time she thought that she too would die from the pain of his loss. Her outlook improved when she began to write of her love for her husband in poetry. She realized that she was not the only one who had lost a loved one, and she tried to understand what that profound loss meant to other people. She put that understanding into her poems. This realization helped her to sleep at night and to go on with her life. She also explored in verse her sorrow about the loss of her native country and her love for God. On Sleepless Nights expresses from the heart the pain of losing a loved one and shows that the longing for a lost love is universal for all people.

Many of literature's best-known characters have spent sleepless nights: Heathcliff roamed the moors, Hemingway's waiter didn't want to close up for the night, and Plath's teenage self stayed up for a month. And there are many others who can't sleep for lust, for joy, for the burden of memory, or for madness. While what is felt in sleep and dreams has long been regarded as revealing -- in life as well as in literature -- the experience of insomnia has remained a blank. Bedlam presents passages on insomnia from world literature past and present. Extracts from novels, short stories, poems, and philosophy are included with pieces by more than 40 writers.
