Everything he predicted came true. He slept through all of it.

On the longest night of 2012, hours after he swore the machines were coming, twenty-one-year-old Jonah Winter goes off a bridge into the dark - and does not wake for twenty years.

His twin brother keeps the vigil. Every night, Thomas takes Jonah's pulse by hand and reports the news to a man who cannot answer - the field, the world, his own narrowing life - while everything Jonah foresaw arrives, one impossible thing at a time.

Then, into a world that no longer needs anyone to see what he alone could see, Jonah opens his eyes. Spare, wry, and quietly devastating, Wake Word asks what a person is for when the thing he did best is finally done better by something else.
