Godfat's Door

Book excerpt: Humankind is faced with a sudden new problem: When people fall asleep, they die. If you want to live, you need to stay awake. With sleep bringing death, the world descends into chaos outside of Godfat’s apartment door. His two neighbors convince Godfat that they should gather together in his apartment and keep one another awake. While humanity takes a collective dirt-nap, strange happenings occur inside and outside Godfat’s door that cannot be explained. The longer the three neighbors stay conscious, the more they come to realize that they might be the only people in the world left awake.
