Girls, memory, parenting, millennial fear - all served Coupland-style. Karen, an attractive, popular student, goes into a coma one night in 1979. Whilst in it, she gives birth to a healthy baby daughter; once out of it, a mere eighteen years later, she finds herself, Rip van Winkle-like, a middle-aged mother whose friends have all gone through all the normal marital, social and political traumas and back again...This tragicomedy shows Coupland in his most mature form yet, writing with all his customary powers of acute observation, but turning his attention away from the surface of modern life to the dynamics of modern relationships, but doing so with all the sly wit and weird accuracy we expect of the soothsaying author of Generation X, Shampoo Planet, Life After God, Microserfs and Polaroids from the Dead.
And like most of humanity, Wade dreams of being the one to discover the ultimate lottery ticket that lies concealed within this virtual world. For somewhere inside this giant networked playground, OASIS creator James Halliday has hidden a series of fiendish puzzles that will yield massive fortune--and remarkable power--to whoever can unlock them. This book is the latest in a new reference series for aircraft modellers called 'Spotlight On' and presents detailed illustrations of the celebrated Hawker family of RAF fighter aircraft from World War II. The book contains fifty colour plan and profile views of the Hawker Tornado, Typhoon and Tempest V aircraft showing a variety of authentic camouflage schemes and RAF markings. Mushroom Model Publications' Girlfriend in a Coma download epub Spotlight On books feature superb colour illustrations of camouflage and markings, specially commissioned for the series.
