All My Friends are Superheroes
Description
In this inventive and poignant novel, Tom discovers he has become invisible—a superpower he never wanted and cannot explain. Six months into his marriage, his wife has stopped seeing him entirely, convinced he has abandoned her, while Tom desperately tries to prove his existence and his love. When she boards a flight to Vancouver, Tom finds himself on the same plane with only the duration of the flight to make her believe in him again, or risk losing her forever. Blending magical realism with deeply human emotion, Andrew Kaufman explores themes of presence, connection, and the invisible ways we can disappear from those closest to us. This darkly witty and ultimately moving story asks what it truly means to be seen by another person.
