Summary: Hello...is there a story in here somewhere?
Review: I purchased this because I read about a movie being made based on it. Allegedly, it was all about an American hypnotherapist helping Scotland Yard with a serial killer case. Well, that part of the book takes up about ten pages. I know some people enjoy reading just for the words -- sort of like poetry. And there's no doubting that these are good words. However, if you're looking for a story, look elsewhere.

Summary: Funny/sad story of an insomniac hypotist.
Review: One of the best novels of recent years. Bell's story of aninsomniac hypotist is by turns funny, scary, perplexing,intriquing, and almost any other adjective that inspires interest. All of Bell's fiction ranks among the best being written today, but Dr. Sleep and Waiting for the End of the World are especially rich examples of his earlier work.
