Night, Sleep and the Dreams of Lovers

Beschreibung

Night,Sleep, and the Dreams of Lovers revists Thomas Wolfe's Asheville 100 years later. It is now a city of art and artists, and the people who see art and artists as a way to become later day Medici, and put their mark on the world. What the history books leave out is that these people are fully sexual and fully impassioned. . . and sometimes talk to their cats.
