In a world obsessed with productivity, the peaceful land of Somnolencia has always thrived on a different philosophy—one of rest, leisure, and the sacred art of napping. But when the relentless forces of busyness invade, led by the tireless Sir Never-Stops and the ambitious Sir Industrious, the dreamlike existence of Somnolencia is thrown into turmoil.
As deadlines tighten their grip and the once-relaxed citizens find themselves trapped in an endless cycle of hustle, only Yawnrick the Restful, the wise philosopher Zzzocrates, and a band of defiant Napfluencers stand between Somnolencia and the nightmare of endless work. Armed with the Pillow Prophecies, the Eternal Snooze Button, and an unshakable belief in the power of a well-timed nap, they must rise—or rather, recline—to save their way of life.
Hilarious, thought-provoking, and brilliantly satirical, Somnolencia: The Nap That Conquered the World is a must-read for anyone caught in the modern-day rat race. Because sometimes, the greatest act of rebellion is simply closing your eyes.
Will Somnolencia wake up to its doom, or will the world finally learn to rest?
