Reviews
Advance Praise "In brief chapters and straightforward prose, Passeron patiently unfolds the harrowing family drama and medical mystery. It's a searing testament to how the dead live on in their loved ones' memory." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review) "Without ever raising his voice, Anthony Passeron has shattered the family silence that scabbed over tragedy and has produced a work so powerful, so moving, that it lingers long after reading. Magnificent." --Annie Ernaux, Nobel Prize winner and author of The Young Man
Synopsis
An intimate, captivating first novel that tells the story of a family in southern France whose lives are intertwined with the history of the AIDS crisis--and with the forgotten French doctors who are among the first to detect the virus. It's 1981. As a wave of mysterious infections sweeps across the United States, a doctor in Paris encounters something unexpected: a case of a disease long thought to have been eradicated. It matches what is happening across the Atlantic--and thus begins a race to make sense of a deadly virus, one that will define a generation. Miles away, in rural France, Anthony Passeron's family is dealing with a crisis of their own. Their small village is gripped by another epidemic: heroin addiction. Anthony's uncle Désiré, once the pride of the family, has become one of the "sleeping children." Often found unconscious on street corners, he is now a stranger to his family. As Désiré's life descends into chaos, the thunder of the AIDS crisis grows closer. These two stories--one intimate, one global--are about to collide. Anthony Passeron's moving novel is also an eye-opening story about shame and the slow poisoning that secrets can inflict on a family. Exploring the stories of the heroic few who fought not only for a cure but for justice for an abandoned community, Sleeping Children is a radical vision of a history reshaped, retold, and remembered.

I received my purchase quickly and I had a quick response from seller when I had a question. I would purchase again from seller.
