Huge gratitude for your friendship and support, and long may the FAGs keep control of their feral narrators.  \nI was born tomorrow today I live yesterday killed me  \nParviz Owsia  \nPart One  \nToday  \nThe bedroom is strange. Unfamiliar. I don’t know where I am, how I came to be here. I don’t know how I’m going to get home.  \nI have spent the night here. I was woken by a woman’s voice – at first I thought she was in bed with me, but then realized she was reading the news and I was hearing a radio alarm – and when I opened my eyes I found myself here. In this room I don’t recognize.  \nMy eyes adjust and I look around in the near dark. A dressing gown hangs off the back of the wardrobe door – suitable for a woman, but someone much older than I am – and some dark-coloured trousers are folded neatly over the back of a chair at the dressing table, but I can make out little else. The alarm clock looks complicated, but I find a button and manage to silence it.  \nIt is then that I hear a juddering intake of breath behind me and realize Iam not alone. I turn round. I see an expanse of skin and dark hair, flecked with white. A man. He has his left arm outside the covers and there is a gold band on the third finger of the hand. I suppress a groan. So this one is not only old and grey, I think, but also married. Not only have I screwed a married man, but I have done so in what I am guessing is his home, in the bed he must usually share with his wife. I lie back to gather myself. I ought to be ashamed.  \nI wonder where the wife is. Do I need to worry about her arriving back at any moment? I imagine her standing on the other side of the room, screaming, calling me a slut. A medusa. A mass of snakes. I wonder how I will defend myself, if she does appear. The guy in the bed doesn’t seem concerned, though. He has turned over and snores on.  \nI lie as still as possible. Usually I can remember how I get into situations like this, but not today. There must have been a party, or a trip to a bar or a club. I must have been pretty wasted. Wasted enough that I don’t remember anything at all. Wasted enough to have gone home with a man with a wedding ring and hairs on his back.  \nI fold back the ","cbCaibBCEOrMUA9B","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaibBCEOrMUA9B","pdf",1528956,304,"English","# About the Book\n# Contents\n## Part One: Today\n## Part Two: The Journal of Christine Lucas\n## Part Three: Today\n# Author’s Note","[{\"question\":\"What is the central premise of the novel Before I Go to Sleep?\",\"answer\":\"Christine loses her memories every time she sleeps, forgetting her identity, past, and even people she loves.\"},{\"question\":\"How is the story structured across the book?\",\"answer\":\"The contents outline three parts, including a journal section for Christine’s entries across multiple dates.\"},{\"question\":\"What happens to Christine when she wakes up?\",\"answer\":\"She finds herself in a strange bedroom, unsure how she got there, while a man nearby suggests a troubling overnight situation.\"}]","Before I Go to Sleep | PDF",1789939994,468]
