Opis

The average person can fall asleep, dream about getting out of bed, taking a shower, going to work, driving home, and eating dinner all within a span of fifteen minutes, without even noticing that it was only a dream, regardless of the nonsense that may have transpired within the dream- just because it felt so realistic. Greg Mallet, 28, was unexpectedly awakened after three years in an accident-related coma; he lived in one long, continuous dream during those three years. Greg doesn't remember who he is, nor does he recall his life before the accident. All that he remembers is the abstract dream life he lived while in the coma, which provided him with a very unusual alternate reality. Along comes Shannon Brewster, a lonely, mildly depressed, young female psychiatrist with self-esteem issues; a non-existent social life and her stressful job as a psychiatrist in the mental health unit of a hospital in Portland, Oregon have taken a toll on her psyche. Shannon takes a strong interest in Greg and his rehabilitation. Can their unlikely bond free them both from the misery of their minds? From beginning to end, "An Abysmal Sleepcation" takes the reader on a thrilling, suspenseful, humorous, and odd journey of self-discovery, and teaches a lesson in taking chances and following one's heart. Read Paul Tannen's improvised, highly-anticipated concept novel, which has been described as "gripping," and "impossible to put down" (even by those who hate reading). "An Abysmal Sleepcation" is a book that you will surely never forget.
