'Moving and inspiring, courageous and true: real art. Just reading her is pleasure' Amy Liptrot, author of The Outrun
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.
Tanya Shadrick is a British writer and former hospice life-story scribe who explores the tension between restraint and risk: how we negotiate duty and desire. Her work includes the durational performance piece The Wild Patience Scrolls: a mile of writing composed pen on paper beside England's oldest outdoor pool which led to residencies at the Jan Michalski Foundation in Switzerland and Virginia Woolf's Monk's House. The Cure for Sleep is her debut book, a memoir that explores the limits of personal freedom within small-town life: what it takes and costs to expand the possible. It was a Waterstones and Evening Standard non-fiction book of the year.
