If Only It Were True |
Translation of a 2001 bestseller in France, this is a cross between a love and a ghost story for adults. A young woman doctor is in a coma in a San Francisco hospital after a serious car accident. In startling circumstances a young architect finds her and a plot develops full of strange and comic situations. A delightful story with a clever twist at the end. Good for a winter evening.
