Historian Franny Nudelman explores the radical work of anti-war Vietnam veterans using sleep - as a setting to understand the traumatic effects of violence on the human psyche, and as a weapon of direction action against the government that pushed them into the waking nightmare of warfare.
Franny is author of Fighting Sleep: The War for the Mind and the US Military from Verso.
Franny Nudelman is a writer and Professor in the Department of English Language and Literature at Carleton University in Ottawa.
