Sleep Before Evening

In 1982 New York, seventeen-year-old Marianne is teetering at the edge of reason. A death in the family sends her brilliant academic career and promising future spiraling out of control until past resentments leads her on a wild and desperate search for the truth about herself. In her new life, she finds anarchic squalor, home grown music and poetry, booze, drugs, sex, violence, love, loss and, above all, exhilarating freedom on her troubled journey from sleep to awakening.
