The Comatose Kids

Oddly plotted novel, jacket blurb from Bernard Malamud. First edition, near fine in a VG jacket--some overall wear to jacket, small closed tear at bottom front, small chip same location. Certainly an oddity. A demented therapist tries to nurse two comatose patients back to health to match them as lovers. The doctor (or Doktor) apparently has a pet ocelot. Ooookay. Hard, First Edition. Fiction Collective, New York, 1975. 001696
