The author, Fiona McKenzie Johnston, discovered that insomnia provided quiet hours for reading and reflection. She found solace in the pages of the Booker Prize shortlist, transforming sleeplessness into a period of productivity and calm. McKenzie Johnston wasn't alone in this experience; many others have found ways to reframe their insomnia. Instead of viewing it as a debilitating condition, they see it as an opportunity for creativity or personal growth. Reading offered an escape from the anxieties of the day, allowing for a deeper engagement with literature.
