Coup De Grace Summary

Coup De Grace by Sofia Ajram

"A harrowing exploration of the expanding labyrinth of despair and the self." Paul Tremblay.
A mindbending and visceral experimental horror about a young man trapped in an infinite Montreal subway station, perfect for readers of Mark Z. Danielewski and Susanna Clarke.

Vicken has a plan: throw himself into the Saint Lawrence River in Montreal and end it all for good, believing it to be the only way out for him after a lifetime of depression and pain. But, stepping off the subway, he finds himself in an endless, looping station.

Determined to find a way out again, he starts to explore the rooms and corridors ahead of him. But no matter how many claustrophobic hallways or vast cathedral-esque rooms he passes through, the exit is nowhere in sight.

The more he explores his strange new prison, the more he becomes convinced that he hasnt been trapped there accidentally, and amongst the shadows and concrete, he comes to realise that he almost certainly is not alone.

A terrifying psychological nightmare from a powerful new voice in horror.

Coup De Grace Reviews

A visceral, hallucinatory meditation on illness, mental and otherwise. I haven't read something with this much resonation since Dazai's No Longer Human. Coup de Grace is a bleak, philosophical look into what it means to be alive, for better or worse, where the only thing scarier than mangled monstrosities is the inexplicable world one is forced to roam simply by breathing. We're all waiting on a train. Some smile on the benches. Some cry on the tracks. - Scott J. Moses, author of Our Own Unique Affliction
