The Wrong Sleep
T910967437
A desolate town is shaken by a blast at its core. Suspicions abound, but its inhabitants should look inside where a stranger manipulates the society from within. This stranger is Janet, a young woman torn between Islam, Christianity and secularism. She is a victim of her confused childhood, of her sexuality and of her mental disarray. The Wrong Sleep tells the story of a woman plagued by insomnia, the demons in her mind and the demons of her past. It is during these sleepless nights that violence and religion lure her towards committing acts of terrifying brutality. Violence and sex are the only ways in which Janet feels she can communicate with the world.
