‘The dilemma my friends suppose me to be in,’ writes the author of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, ‘has, for its two horns, the endurance of a sleepless night, and the adoption of some recipe for inducing sleep.’ In this delightful book –  the perfect gift for all insomniacs – are collected a splendid variety of entertainments devised to help pass ‘the wakeful hours’.

Ranging from puzzles, rhymes and limericks to simple number problems, calming calculations and planning dreams, Lewis Carroll’s Guide for Insomniacs is a feast of intriguing activities guaranteed to keep you entertained as you search for the elusive rabbit-hole of a good night’s sleep.

‘Brandreth’s arrangement of Carroll’s musings, drawn from several of his published works, is charmingly formulated to pierce the darkness: “Whatever the horrors of the night, day always comes.” It’s a thoughtful gift for clever night owls.’
­Publishers Weekly
‘A medley of games, riddles, rhymes and number problems, Lewis Carroll’s Guide for Insomniacs is the perfect companion for the wee hours when sleep won’t come.’
Wall Street Journal
‘A charmingly odd little book.’
