Devil in a Coma
Mark Lanegan - Book - by Mark Lanegan
(2021)
One
morning in March 2021 with the second wave of infections ripping
through Ireland where he was newly resident, Mark Lanegan woke up
breathless, fatigued beyond belief, his body burdened with a gigantic
dose of Covid-19. Admitted to Kerry Hospital and initially given little
hope of survival, Lanegan's illness has him slipping in and out of a
coma, unable to walk or function for several months and fearing for his
life. As his situation becomes more intolerable over the course of that
bleakest of springs he is assaulted by nightmares, visions and regrets
about a life lived on the edge of chaos and disorder.
He
is prompted to consider his predicament and how, in his sixth decade,
his lifelong battle with mortality has led to this final banal encounter
with a disease that has undone millions, when he has apparently been
cheating death for his whole existence. Written in vignettes of prose
and poetry, DEVIL IN A COMA is a terrifying account of illness and the
remorse that comes with it by an artist and writer with singular vision.
