Acerca de este título
A Contemporary Tragedy in a Classic Style
Four New Yorkers' paths collide in the days ahead of the 2016 election. Dan teaches Marxism while secretly courting a student. His girlfriend Mariko, an actress, finds refuge in her dying mentor's bed. When her sister, Akari, arrives from LA—in flight from her own dead-end romance—she becomes the unwitting witness to their mutual destruction . . .
In crystalline prose, Gasda maps the territory between who we pretend to be and who we are—and how far we are willing to go when we think the internet isn't looking. The Sleepers, a ruthless portrait of educated Millennials who know better but act worse, throws a jagged, electric light on how desire upends our carefully curated social personas.

“A salve for the anxious swiping and scrolling it so meticulously recreates. Immersing yourself in it makes you notice little things—your own verbal tics and texting style (lower case? punctuation or no?), the rings in your coffee cup, even the subtle fault lines in your relationships. It wakes you up to the world, which is no small achievement.”—Trevor Cribben Merrill, First Things
“Gasda captures and expresses the tortuous thoughts weighing down his characters’ minds—thoughts that might be on your mind, too—thoughts one doesn’t expect to hear verbalized, and yet here they are on the page. . . Gasda understands our moment and the havoc it has wreaked upon a generation.”—G. D. Dess, Compact Magazine
“Gasda adeptly generate empathy for all of the characters, as their story sleepwalks toward a subtle but devastating climax.”—Library Journal
“The Sleepers consolidates Matt Gasda’s status as an inventive, insightful observer of his anxious generation—and a commanding literary figure for our moment.”—Sohrab Ahmari, US editor, UnHerd
