Résumé:
First published by Jonathan Cape, London, in 1938. Reprinted in 2008 by Hyphen Press, layout by Stuart Bailey.

ASLEEP IN THE AFTERNOON tells about a shy and retiring physicist whose custom it is to sleep four or five hours every day. It is a strange practice, and appears to be due to the fact that he is deaf and unhappy about this defect. But presently it transpires that his deafness is only pretended; the real reason is that he has an active and aggressive wife from whom he seeks refuge. He wears a little hearing apparatus in his ear, even when he is sleeping in the afternoon; it turns out that it is not a hearing apparatus at all, but a device with which he is conducting experiments. It produces a kind of ray which effects the brain and causes sleep accompanied by delightful dreams.

Résumé:
First published by Jonathan Cape, London, in 1937. Reprinted in 2008 by Hyphen Press, layout by Stuart Bailey. "The title of Mr Large's novel is a strange one: SUGAR IN THE AIR. It was published in this country (England) by Scribner's and had a considerable success. It is the story of a hard-working and serious-minded chemist who devotes himself to the problem of making synthetic sugar. Not being a chemist myself, I do not know how plausible Mr Large's formulas and processes would sound to a technical man, but they are convincing to the lay reader, and by the time we see the first supply of "Sunsap" coming out of the vats we believe in it, and are prepared to see the food industry revolutionized. But we have forgotten the profit-takers. Mr Large's hard-working chemist finds himself and his process tied into knots by the financiers." Upton Sinclair
