"I'm sure this is taking a toll on my body and my and maybe my psyche but I don't care like at least it's being alive for a little bit," she says. "If you're really going to actualize if you'rereally going to discover yourself you actually have to face something that's so dark that she can really face it right by the way" She looks at her husband and son with contempt, also where she stops being able to concentrate for the first time on what she's reading. And then she dresses up like a boy in an attempt to ward off trauma.
David and Tamler take the first excursion into the work of Haruki Murakami and talk about his short story “Sleep.” A thirty-year-old woman, the wife of a dentist and mother of a young boy, has a terrifying dream and when she wakes up, she no longer needs to sleep. This isn’t insomnia, it’s something else – she has never felt so alive, strong, and awake. She can swim laps for an hour in the afternoon and read Anna Karenina with perfect concentration until dawn. What is this condition? Is it real? What does it tell us about her past, her sense of self, her alienation from friends, family, and her role? This is a banger of a story folks, check it out.
