“ Characters zoom in and out of focus as the night draws on and morning approaches. We observe the scenes as voyeurs looking through a camera tracking its movements. We hear the conversations and the strange, frequently surreal series of events flow. The beautiful descriptions conjure a melancholy feeling, an understanding of why the girl has chosen to sleep. Locations have a mystic and magical quality that disguise their humdrum ordinary nature and allow the novel to flow like a strange dream. At times, this seductive fable is held back by lengthy passages of rather mundane dialogue but otherwise this is a bold and captivating story. ”
