    The Shapeless Unease

    Paperback
    By Samantha Harvey (Author)
    Publication Date: January 7, 2021


    About the Book:

    The Shapeless Unease is a raw, lyrical, and deeply honest account of a year without sleep. In this intimate memoir, acclaimed novelist Samantha Harvey chronicles her battle with chronic insomnia—its agonizing restlessness, its distortions of time and self, and the mental unraveling that comes with long-term sleep deprivation.

    What begins as a simple diary of sleepless nights unfolds into a deeply philosophical and poetic meditation on the nature of consciousness, memory, fear, and grief. Harvey’s writing is both intellectually rich and emotionally piercing, blending her experience with reflections on literature, language, and the fragility of the mind.


    Here’s a quote from the book:

    "Insomnia is not a state of being without sleep, but a state of being without peace." — Samantha Harvey


    Why Read It?

    The Shapeless Unease is for anyone who has struggled with anxiety, sleeplessness, or the hidden suffering that takes place in silence. But it’s more than just a book about insomnia—it’s a beautifully written inquiry into the human condition. Harvey’s vulnerability on the page is both comforting and courageous, reminding us that even in our most fragmented states, we are not alone.

    If you appreciate memoirs that mix poetic prose with existential reflection, this book will resonate deeply. It’s a slim volume that somehow contains whole worlds.
