About this book:
When Carl awakens from a coma after being attacked on a subway train, life around him feels unfamiliar, even strange. He arrives at his best friend's house without remembering how he got there; he seems to be having an affair with his secretary, which is pleasant but surprising. He starts to notice distortions in his experience, strange leaps in his perception of time. Is he truly reacting with the outside world, he wonders, or might he be terribly mistaken? So begins a dark psychological drama that raises questions about the boundaries of consciousness.

My thoughts:
I can't believe I even finished this book. It was horrible although it did start out kind good. However, the rest of the book didn't make any kind of sense and I thought it would get better at the end but it was stupid. Horrible book. I can't even begin to describe how boring and stupid this book was. It was definitely a waste of my time.
