Ralph Roberts, at his seventy years and after the death of his wife, feels that his life is over. Is it possible that his recent widowhood, coupled with persistent insomnia, is the cause of this new visual sensibility that, little by little, allows him to see beyond people? Ralph is concerned about this fact, no less than the sudden and inexplicable, irrational and violent behavior of some of his neighbors. Under the calm surface of the small town of Derry, something seems to be changing. And not for good.
With Insomnia, King returns to show himself as the great teacher in revealing the dark side of reality.
