Rumusan :

The Long Sleep by Kate Hill is a powerful and timely exploration of youth suicide, focusing on individuals under the age of 25. Drawing on both hard data and deeply personal stories, Hill shines a light on a growing crisis that is too often overlooked. Her clear, compassionate writing makes complex issues accessible to a wide audience, from concerned readers to mental health professionals.

What sets this book apart is its careful blend of research and real-life experiences. Hill examines the emotional, cultural, and societal factors that contribute to youth suicide, with special attention to the high rates among young men. She explores how stigma around mental health—especially male vulnerability—can prevent young people from getting the help they need.

More than just a diagnosis of the problem, The Long Sleep offers hope and direction. Hill calls for earlier intervention, better support systems, and open, stigma-free conversations about mental health. This thoughtful and important book is essential reading for anyone who works with or cares about young people today.
