"Nocturnal" presents the life of someone with DSPD--delayed sleep phase disorder, otherwise known as being a night owl. It challenges the norm of daytime living and argues that nighttime living is as valid a way to live as it has the potential to be as vibrant and active. It shows that life doesn't stop when people go to sleep at night, supported by some classic nocturnal animals known for their active night lives.
