Summary
Can’t sleep? Tonight, let’s travel back in time for a relaxing bedtime story as we read "Roughing It" by Mark Twain. Written in 1872, this classic travel memoir follows a young Mark Twain as he journeys by stagecoach across the United States to Nevada. While the original tale is full of humor, frontier adventure, and pioneer history, it is read tonight in a calm, monotonous tone designed to help you relax, decompress, and drift off into a deep, peaceful sleep. (You might even catch me struggling to decide on the proper pronunciation of "Nevada" along the way!) Whether you suffer from insomnia, mind-racing, or just need a soothing voice to help you unwind after a long day, close your eyes and let this boring bedtime story help you fall asleep fast.
