#6 Waiting for Eden by Elliot AckermanEden Malcom lies in a bed, unable to move or to speak, imprisoned in his own mind. His wife Mary spends every day on the sofa in his hospital room. He has never even met their young daughter. And he will never again see the friend and fellow soldier who didn't make it back home--and who narrates the novel.
Looking at other people's reviews of this book, I just didn't get it. It claimed to be about the quality of life. And to me it just seemed obvious that this poor man had none of this left. It seemed cruel to keep him alive.
