In these three novellas, Yoshimoto spins the stories of three young women bewitched into a spiritual sleep. Sly and mystical as a ghost story, with a touch of Kafkaesque surrealism, "Asleep"--now in paperback--is an enchanting book from one of the best writers in contemporary international fiction.
