파충류의 밤

After more than two decades in book publishing, the last of them running the editorial floor, a woman is worn down by insomnia. Her days run on medicine: tablets to digest, to sleep, to dull headaches, and vitamins by the handful against cancer. A long journey has taught her to stop fighting sleeplessness and treat it as part of her life, though the craving for real sleep stays with her as her plane comes in. Through a reptile's remembered, raw will to survive, the story weighs life against death.
