Sinossi

THE ULTIMATE GUIDE FOR THE WAKEFUL
Night is not what it used to be. In today's age of 24/7 Twitter, smartphones under the pillow and car alarms, it is easy to forget the power, the fun and the magic of what was once called the witching hour .
Rediscover the joys and the mysteries of the night with these 102 surprising, witty and even inspirational pieces on every subject under the moon, from moths to meditation, badgers to boudoirs, Hopkins to hedgehogs.
At Night is the perfect nocturnal companion, whether on a ramble through the sleeping city or on a journey into the furthest reaches of your past self.
No self-respecting night owl should be without it.

Recensione

'Which came first: the chicken of anxiety or the egg of sleeplessness? As we settle down to worry about that, this strange little book arrives to give us hope and succour ... accompanied by Jim Nunn's beautiful, haunting black-and-white illustrations ... Perversely, it's all rather cheering. Insomnia is such a lonely, desperate business but this book makes you realise there are a lot of us in the same boat. And some of the things you could do might actually be worth doing.'
