Eva - Softcover

Eva wakes... She has been in a coma for eight months after a horrifying accident. She hears her mother murmer, 'It's all right. You're going to be all right.' But there's something terrible in the voice... Eva has changed. From now on she must live life that no one has ever lived before. A life that will change the world. 'An outstanding novel.' Guardian 'Shatteringly moving, intellectually demanding, relentessly readable.' Junior Bookself 'A remarkeable work of sceince fiction. It has tenderness, humour and passion. It will not quickly leave the mind.' Times Literary Supplement
