LARGE, E. C.
"Asleep In The Afternoon" is the novel that the hero (ironically conceived) of "Sugar In The Air" then writes. The book has quite a complex structure: a novel about a device that can bring on sleep, the woman who becomes a missionary advocate for this sleep as a social palliative; and the story, told in parallel, of the writer and his wife and young family, living through the making and production of this novel.
