Acerca de este título
What happens when you realise that you must change your life?
When - after years of hiding in routine, shrinking from opportunity, and sleepwalking through your days - you know you want more.
How do you remake your life without breaking it?
The Cure for Sleep is the stunning memoir of a smalltown wife and mother who returns from sudden near-death determined to live her second life on a larger, braver scale - whatever it takes, or costs.
Reseñas de la crítica
A sublimely written account of refusing to be defined by social constructs and embracing life-enhancing change, The Cure for Sleep is a poignant and inspiring slice of literary memoir.
This hypnotically written debut memoir, all about claiming a bolder, more risk-taking life, reads like a fable. (Jessie Thompson)
A tender but ferocious memoir... to awaken, to see the world with such freshness, to "become an explorer of the everyday and break new ground in it" - we could all do with a bit more of that. (Marianne Levy)
Absorbing . . . robust, declarative even, but there is also something disquieting in this memoir . . . for Shadrick, to be a woman, an artist and a mother still seems something not quite of this world: a fairy tale that puzzles her even though - or perhaps because - it came true (Sheena Joughin)
Thoughtful, poetically articulate . . . ambitious in its scope, a memoir telling her journey from rural working-class Devon to where she is today (Boudicca Fox-Leonard)
Absolutely gorgeous. If you like lyrical, beautiful, searching non-fiction, then you'll love The Cure for Sleep (Melissa Febos, author of Girlhood)
Such a bold, brave, and beautiful story about birth, death, rebirth and building a larger life
I love this book. Tanya's story is moving and inspiring. Her thoughts and writing are well considered, courageous & true: real art. Just reading her is pleasure
This is a book of women and words; homes and honesty; light and longing. A life laid bare, and given to us as reminder of what it means to choose to live. Shadrick weaves the raw beauty of the day to day with the magic of myth and fairy tale to offer us a way through the darkest woods
I finished this wonderful book with tears in my eyes. A book about daring to be, daring to head out, to encounter truths and to understand what place desire must have and must not have in a life. It is beautifully written, both careful and passionate, both slight and strong in its gestures like the best of art, and astonishingly, heartrendingly open. Intensity, beauty, subtlety, pain and courage - all are here.
In beautiful prose, Tanya Shadrick writes her own fairy tale of becoming. She is fearless in her depiction of female desire - I think many women will find themselves in these pages.
A daring and enchantingly written blend of memoir and self-help, which urges us to consider, at any age, breaking the spell of our inherited longings for love, approval, safety and rescue, and doing what we are actually called to do with our one wild and precious life. (Caroline Sanderson)
Such lovely observations on familial love and motherhood - and being alive
