  Sarah is narcoleptic. Her inability to distinguish between dreams and waking reality gives rise to many misunderstandings. For Terry, a disillusioned film critic, sleep is merely a memory. For Dr Dunstan, sleep is nothing less than a global disease.Constructed to reflect the different stages of sleep, The House of Sleep is a brilliant and original comedy about the powers we acquire - and those we relinqish - when we fall asleep, and when we fall in love. It must be one of the best books ofthe year - Malcolm Bradbury in the Times
