The Fatigue Artist is a refreshingly candid story

about life, love, and survival in the contemporary

world. A writer living in New York City, Laura is

overwhelmed by a mysterious lethargy and retreats

to her bed where she reflects on the loves and losses

of her recent past and seeks the cure to her perplexing

tiredness.

Fortified by the Eastern teachings of her Tai Chi

instructor and the nurturing attentions of friends

and a acupuncturist, Laura crawls out of her

somnambulism with intelligent determination in search

of peace and resurrection. The Fatigue Artist is

both a moving chronicle of a woman's search for

meaning and a wry depiction of modern urban life.
