Sleep Decades presents a mosaic of individuals who have grown into their identities with a mixture of verve and unease. There is the nomadic mother and her surreptitious rituals, the maverick librarian and his unwitting mausoleum, the lifelong activist and her shifting anti-intellectualism, the small-time professor and his encroaching fraudulence, the untimely philosopher and his misplaced appetencies, the wanton translator and her sexual scaffolding, the mystic janitor and his utopian vision. A gathering of existence in the adversative mood.
Each story unsettles the proliferating convictions with which we demand to be distinguished from others―convictions that obfuscate and harden our sense for life.
