sleepless nights
signed first edition, 1979.
the new york times called hardwick's third novel her "chef d'oeuvre." published when the author was sixty-three, and full of autobiographical elements, "sleepless nights" depicts a woman looking back on her life.
hardwick’s crowning achievement is a poetic, fragmentary memoir that weaves together memory, desire, and dreams. with a delicate blend of fact and fiction, hardwick revisits the people and places that have shaped her identity, from her kentucky childhood to her new york city years, capturing the fleeting moments that define any person.
hardwick’s prose blooms with the elegance of poetry, making this both a brilliant novel and a profound exploration of the human experience.
