Who is the One?



Is it Peter Reynolds, mild-mannered office clerk pouring petrol through his neighbour's letterbox in the middle of the night?

Is it Wayne Dolan, a man who discovers strange, unsociable uses for his own urine - and an even stranger desire for the lady upstairs with the whip?

Or is it Dusty, a mysterious vagrant who views the world through a pair of 1966 Balorama wrap sunglasses?

Mick Nixon wants to find out, because people are disappearing. And if he and Sally are ever going to share more than just sandwiches, he'd better hurry up, or they could be next.

One Among the Sleepless is a novel set in a neighbourhood just like yours: noisy, angry, demented. You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll throw it through your neighbour's window tied to a house brick!

Reviews and comments

"Brilliantly written...
wonderfully narrated
and very funny."

J.C. Hutchins, author, 7th Son podcast novel trilogy

Absolutely awesome...
Bottom line: this is an excellent, excellent podcast novel.

Charles Sheehan-Miles, author of ‘Prayer at Ramala’and ‘Republic: A Novel of America’s Future’.

"Extraordinary! Absolute and unbridled genius. This novel, unrelenting in wit, humor, style and story offers just a glimpse at Bennett's unique brilliance. For an avid listener of audiobooks and more recently, podiobooks, I will say without reservation that this is the best work that I have ever heard. Because now, ladies and gentlemen, emerges a new and insanely clever talent that redefines "performance art" in the written genre. Simply stated, there is NOBODY out there that can touch Mike Bennett. This is the new "Rock Legend" for spoken theater in written form. His stories, voices, characters, the scope of accents, the exactness of musical transition; it's all perfect!"
