Product Information
One of those rare, unforgettable novels that are as chilling as they are insightful, as thought-provoking as they are terrifying, award-winning author Connie Willis's Passage is an astonishing blend of relentless suspense and cutting-edge science unlike anything you've ever read before. It is the electrifying story of a psychologist who has devoted her life to tracking death. But when she volunteers for a research project that simulates the near-death experience, she will either solve life's greatest mystery -- or fall victim to its greatest terror. At Mercy General Hospital, Dr. Joanna Lander will soon be paged -- not to save a life, but to interview a patient just back from the dead. A psychologist specializing in near-death experiences, Joanna has spent two years recording the experiences of those who have been declared clinically dead and lived to tell about it. It's research on the fringes of ordinary science, but Joanna is about to get a boost from an unexpected quarter. A new doctor has arrived at Mercy General, one with the power to give Joanna the chance to get as close to death as anyone can. A brilliant young neurologist, Dr. Richard Wright has come up with a way to manufacture the near-death experience using a psychoactive drug. Dr. Wright is convinced that the NDE is a survival mechanism and that if only doctors understood how it worked, they could someday delay the dying process, or maybe even reverse it. He can use the expertise of a psychologist of Joanna Lander's standing to lend credibility to his study. But he soon needs Joanna for more than just her reputation. When his key volunteer suddenly drops out of the study, Joanna finds herself offering to become Richard's next subject. After all, who better than she, a trained psychologist, to document the experience? Her first NDE is as fascinating as she imagined it would be -- so astounding that she knows she must go back, if only to find out why this place is so hauntingly familiar. But each time Joanna goes under, her sense of dread begins to grow, because part of her already knows why the experience is so familiar, and why she has every reason to be afraid.... And just when you think you know where she is going, Willis throws in the biggest surprise of all -- a shattering scenario that will keep you feverishly reading until the final climactic page is turned.

Reviews
"...holding firmly to her endearing brand of exasperated humor." --Publishers Weekly Critical acclaim for the novels of Connie Willis: To Say Nothing of the Dog "The most hilarious book of its kind since John Irving'sThe Water-Method ManandA Confederacy of Duncesby John Kennedy O'Toole." --Des Moines Sunday Register "Willis effortlessly juggles comedy of manners, chaos theory, and a wide range of literary allusions [with a] near flawlessness of plot, character, and prose." --Publishers Weekly(starred review) Doomsday Book "A tour de force." --The New York Times Book Review "A stunning novel that encompasses both suffering and hope." --The Denver Post "The world of 1348 burns in the mind's eye, and every character alive in that year is a fully realized being.... It becomes possible to feel ... that Connie Willis did, in fact, over the five yearsDoomsday Booktook her to write, open a window to another world. And that she saw something there." --The Washington Post Book World Lincoln's Dreams "A tantalizing mix of history and scientific speculation ... Willis tells this tale with clarity and assurance...her prose is impeccable." --San Francisco Chronicle "A love story on more than one level, and Ms. Willis does justice to them all. It was only toward the end of the book that I realized how much tension had been generated, how engrossed I was in the characters, how much I cared about their fates." --The New York Times Book Review
