Beskrivelse
The Sleepers traces the intersecting paths of four New Yorkers as they confront the disintegration of their carefully constructed social identities. Dan, a leftist blogger and academic, risks everything for an affair with his student. At the same time, his partner Mariko, a struggling actor, rekindles a passionate liaison with her dying mentor, a once-revered director. Mariko's sister, Akari, a cinematographer in town from LA for work, navigates her own tumultuous relationship with a younger woman. In sharp, compelling prose, Gasda reveals how choices often betray ideals. Each character in The Sleepers pursues success and fulfillment, yet stumbles into self-deception and hypocrisy, blurring the line between professed values and private desires. Gasda offers a riveting exploration of identity, ambition, and moral compromise--a nuanced critique of a generation caught between who they claim to be and the messy realities they inhabit.
