Insomniac City by Bill Hayes

How would insomniacs classify the hours when the rest of their time zone is sleeping: late hours or early hours? When Bill Hayes moved from California to New York City, he took to roaming the streets when he couldn’t sleep. He observed, photographed, and wrote about others he encountered during these times, which is part of this new book. Bill then takes one step deeper into his personal life and shares details about his relationship with Oliver Sacks. He provides an intimate glimpse into both of these worlds. I felt the city, with all its personality, as I read each word of this beautiful memoir.
