What Richard finds when he gets there is breathtaking: more extraordinary, more frightening than his wildest dreams. But how long can paradise survive here on Earth? And what lengths will Richard go to in order to save it?

    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 the human psyche, dream versus reality, and the boundaries of consciousness. As Carl grapples with his predicament, Alex Garland - author of The Beach and the screenplay for 28 Days Later, plays with conventions and questions our assumptions about the way we exist in the world, even as it draws us into the unsettling and haunting book about a lost suitcase and a forgotten identity.

    Efter et overfald på en af Londons undergrundsstationer går en ung mand i koma. På vej tilbage til livet bevæger han sig frem og tilbage mellem sin hospitalsseng og en række af de steder, der har betydet noget for ham, i et forsøg på at få et klart billede af det liv, han levede før overfaldet. Han opsøger sine venner, sit barndomshjem, sin egen lejlighed, sin sædvanlige boghandel og pladebutik - og blandt alle disse minder støder han både på selvmodsigende erindringer og ubesvarede spørgsmål om nutiden. Fortælleren bevæger sig på grænsen mellem drøm og virkelighed. Kom han nogensinde ud af sin koma? Er det muligt at skelne mellem den, man er, og det, man drømmer?
