Sleep Has His House (first published as The House of Sleep' in New York by Double Day in 1947) is a 1948 by Anna Kavan. The novel is a dark coming of age narrative, [1] which juxtaposes realistic semi-autobiographical accounting of life, with sections of subconscious wanderings. [2]
According to critic Kate Zambreno, the novel was neither a popular nor critical success, leading to the publisher Jonathan Cape dropping her as one of their authors.[2]Kirkus Review, when reviewing a 1980 reprint of the novel, called its style as having a " dreamlike quality--often beautiful but generally less effective [than her earlier work]". [1]
