Insomnia
(Stephen King)
Sleepless nights, heavenly auras, new-found love and vitality, strange extraterrestial creatures, new dimensions to life and death, all this and more can be found within the pages of Stephen King's captivating read, 'Insomnia'. The story is woven around the demise of the wife of Ralph Roberts, a retired but still going-strong kind of man due to cancer and the resultant insomnia that assails him. Each night, with increasing trepidation and fear, Ralph goes to sleep only to find that he's waking up sooner than ever until a day comes when he's waking up at 1:30 in the night! This sudden capsizing of his sleep mechanism, albeit scary and energy-sapping, opens the doors of the unknown and the mysterious to Ralph's hereto uninitiated vision. Driven by the ghosts of Carolyn, his wife's traumatic death, Ralph goes on marathon-like walks, going on to explore the hitherto unseen world of death and after-life. Added to this awe-inspiring and mesmerizing plot is the character of his doctor friend who appears to show spurts of insanity in his otherwise normal and good-hearted behaviour. Ralph starts to have strange visions and auras and begins to suspect that he must be going senile, that is, until he finds out that his crazy friend is also having the same vision. The matter seems related to an abortion scandal in the vicinity. To add to the excitement, Ralph starts to fall in love with his attractive widowed neighbour Lois. And then comes the twist, Lois also starts having insomnia and Ralph is starting to have knowledge about who is going to die next. And then something happens to tell him that the next victim might be Lois or Ralph, himself... Get the book to find out what happens eventually.
