DEVIL IN A COMA - MARK LANEGAN GEBUNDEN

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.
