Description
"One of the saddest, funniest, strangest, and most romantic books. . . . Brilliant!"—The Bookseller (UK)
Ten years ago, Coach House Books published Andrew Kaufman's All My Friends Are Superheroes. Since that date, the book has become one of Coach House's perennial bestsellers and Kaufman has gone on to write several other critically acclaimed books. The novel has been sold and translated into nearly twenty territories, with Spanish, Turkish, Korean, Norwegian and Italian versions of the book (just to name a few) in circulation, and given away as gifts at several weddings.In Kaufman's debut novel, all Tom's friends really are superheroes.
There's the Ear, the Spooner, the Impossible Man. Tom even married a superhero, the Perfectionist. But at their wedding, the Perfectionist was hypnotized (by ex-boyfriend Hypno, of course) to believe that Tom is invisible. Nothing he does can make her see him. Six months later, she's sure that Tom has abandoned her.
So she's moving to Vancouver. She'll use her superpower to make Vancouver perfect and leave all the heartbreak in Toronto. With no idea Tom's beside her, she boards an airplane. Tom has until the wheels touch the ground in Vancouver to convince her he’s visible, or he loses her forever.
The tenth anniversary edition of Andrew Kaufman's perennial favourite includes a catalogue of dozens of new superheroes and gorgeous illustrations by Tom Percival, all printed in teal ink.
Andrew Kaufman is the author of The Waterproof Bible and The Tiny Wife.
