Trish Edgewater is the Slumber Corps' top recruiter. On the phone, at a specially organized Sleep Drive, even in a supermarket parking lot: Trish can get even the most reluctant healthy dreamer to donate sleep to an insomniac in crisis--one of hundreds of thousands of people who have totally lost the ability to sleep.

Run by the wealthy and enigmatic Storch brothers, the Slumber Corps is at the forefront of the fight against this deadly new disease. But when Trish is confronted by "Baby A," the first universal sleep donor, and the mysterious "Donor Y," whose horrific infectious nightmares are threatening to sweep through the precious sleep supply, her faith in the organization and in her own motives begins to falter. Fully illustrated with dreamy evocations of Russell's singular imagination and featuring a brand-new "Nightmare Appendix," Sleep Donation will keep readers up long into the night and long after haunt their dreams.

Download or read book Radical written by David Platt and published by Multnomah. This book was released on 2010-05-04 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New York Times bestseller What is Jesus worth to you? It's easy for American Christians to forget how Jesus said his followers would actually live, what their new lifestyle would actually look like. They would, he said, leave behind security, money, convenience, even family for him. They would abandon everything for the gospel. They would take up their crosses daily... But who do you know who lives like that? Do you? In Radical, David Platt challenges you to consider with an open heart how we have manipulated the gospel to fit our cultural preferences. He shows what Jesus actually said about being his disciple--then invites you to believe and obey what you have heard. And he tells the dramatic story of what is happening as a "successful" suburban church decides to get serious about the gospel according to Jesus. Finally, he urges you to join in The Radical Experiment -- a one-year journey in authentic discipleship that will transform how you live in a world that desperately needs the Good News Jesus came to bring.

Download or read book The Book of Sleep written by Haytham El Wardany and published by . This book was released on 2021-08-15 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now in paperback, The Book of Sleep is a landmark in contemporary Arabic literature. What is sleep? How can this most unproductive of human states--metaphorically called death's shadow or considered the very pinnacle of indolence--be envisioned as action and agency? And what do we become in sleep? What happens to the waking selves we understand ourselves to be? Written in the spring of 2013, as the Egyptian government of President Mohammed Morsi was unraveling in the face of widespread protests, The Book of Sleep is a landmark in contemporary Arabic literature. Drawing on the devices and forms of poetry, philosophical reflection, political analysis, and storytelling, this genre-defying work presents us with an assemblage of fragments that combine and recombine, circling around their central theme but refusing to fall into its gravity. "My concern was not to create a literary product in the conventional sense, but to try and use literature as a methodology for thinking," El Wardany explains. In this volume, sleep shapes sentences and distorts conventions. Its protean instability throws out memoir and memory, dreams and hallucinatory reverie, Sufi fables and capitalist parables, in the quest to shape a question. The Book of Sleep is a generous and generative attempt to reimagine possibility and hope in a world of stifling dualities and constrictions.

Download or read book The Slumber written by SR Urie and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2010-09-28 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A young man's mother dies and he's forsaken by his girlfriend, but he holds onto his pride and volunteers to go to war. It's in Viet Nam that he's injured so badly that after healing he becomes tormented by a gift. To see the spirits of those who've died doesn't reveal the identity of those who are demons. Evil brings death driving down the road in the guise of a beautiful lady, a biker on a chopper, and a pig who likes to dress like a woman. There's a rich man whose love for money brings him lust for murder, and it's the Devil himself that pulls the puppet strings. But there's also the ghost of an old man who has a trick up his sleeve, an odd way of talking, and the desire to overcome evil as great as his love is for his country and an angel of God. The sequel to “the Long Watch,” it's in `the Slumber' that a soldier can find sanctuary from pain and madness, and where the destitute spirit of Love can find peace. Now and then all it takes is a pretty face to mask the darkness and its evil. Sometimes it takes more than the spirit of a nation's heroes, seasoned at the game of combat, to defy the laws of nature and to return sanity to a wounded veteran.
