On this week’s Guide Membership podcast, my visitor is the novelist Samantha Harvey, whose new guide — The Shapeless Unease: A Yr of Not Sleeping — is a very written, humorous and terrifying account of her expertise with insomnia. She talks to me in regards to the unusual contortions that the thoughts makes when the boundaries between aware and unconscious thought begin to fray, and the way writing — as she sees it — saved her from insanity.
