THE Cure for Insomnia

Lee was best known for his epic poem: “A Cure for Insomnia” which, in its film version, was listed as the longest film ever made in the 5th edition (published in 1994) of The Guinness Book of Movie Facts and Feats. He was also cited for the largest number of costume changes (201) by one performer.

In 1994 the poem was 4,080 pages but now has grown to over 5,700 pages. The poem incorporates his research into ancient ancestries and cultures. Parts of the poem have been published over the years.

The whereabouts of the full text of the “Cure for Insomnia” are unknown, but the most complete version digitized to date (450 pages) can be downloaded below.
