Breathers
“Browne’s black comedy debut brilliantly reinvents zombie culture for the 21st century…Neatly mixes humor and extreme violence with a surprisingly tender love story, some witty social satire, and an extremely strong narrative voice.”
—Publishers Weekly
“A terrific comedy about the perils and joys of life beyond death…A zombie comedy with brains.”
—Kirkus Reviews
“Browne confidently balances a love story with ample amounts of gore and gags that should win over fans of George Romero and Shaun of the Dead…A welcome deviation in zombie lit.”
—Booklist
“Dark and morbid, Breathers is a real treat.”
—Bookreporter.com
“Funny, heart-warming, sad and romantic…Refreshingly original, with enough gore to satisfy any zombie fan.”
—Science Fiction Book Club
Meet Andy Warner, a recently deceased everyman and newly minted zombie. Resented by his parents, abandoned by his friends, and reviled by a society that no longer considers him human, Andy is having a bit of trouble adjusting to his new existence. But all that changes when he goes to an Undead Anonymous meeting and finds kindred souls in Rita, an impossibly sexy recent suicide with a taste for the formaldehyde in cosmetic products, and Jerry, a twenty-one-year-old car crash victim with an exposed brain and a penchant for Renaissance pornography. When the group meets a rogue zombie who teaches them the joys of human flesh, things start to get messy, and Andy embarks on a journey of self-discovery that will take him from his casket, to the SPCA, to a media-driven class-action lawsuit on behalf of the rights of zombies everywhere.
Breathers is a contemporary dark comedy about life, or undeath, through the eyes of an ordinary zombie. It’s a classic story of suffering and redemption, like The Color Purple or the New Testament. Only with cannibalism.
