Description:
The Seattle Times called him "A fresh writing voice with a proven ability to write scenes of great poignancy. Coupland is a writer of imagination and a master of ironic juxtaposition". Now, in this profoundly moving, darkly comic, and eerily precise novel, Coupland gives readers his most mature and complex work to date. Girlfriend in a Coma is a book that will not easily be forgotten.
Expand description
Karen Ann MacNeil, a pretty 17-year-old who lives in Vancouver, lapses into a coma one cold December night in 1979. In her wake, Karen leaves a group of confused friends who travel through the next two decades emotionally hampered by her loss. By the early 1990s, these friends are working in Vancouver's thriving film and TV industry, primarily on The X-Files and for a special-effects company. These shows alter their perception of what is real and possible.
In 1997, after 18 years, Karen awakens. Almost immediately, the world undergoes profound, bloody, and terrifying changes that Karen and her friends experience -- and then must try to make right.
