John West has it all... A beautiful girl, a great job he loves, a wonderful life. But is it all just a hallucination? After six years in a coma, John wakes up to find his beautiful life swept away in a storm of experimental drugs, and he has no recollection of his pre-coma existence. His choice is clear: Stay in a drab world not of his making and beyond his control, or return to his happy life in the "other" world. Coma is a comedy that challenges our everyday conceptions of reality, God, love, George Bush, and other illusions.

This book challenges the populist idea that loneliness is a bad and sad thing. Loneliness is rather a very facilitative mechanism of body-mind for wellness and personal excellence. It is an innate call of instincts for self-actualization of potentials within, to attain excellence. It answers core question as ‘What’s Wrong’ with things around and within us, listing ways to use loneliness for happiness. The book looks into many novel ideas of good living.
