Customer Reviews

One of the best books of prose you will ever read.

'Coma Therapy' is both hopeful and cynical; witty and serious; and brings all the boyish charm in the world with every brightly delivered line. With each story, Victorino pulls you into his past and makes you taste every detail as if the memory was yours. The entire book leaves no room for disappointment, and keeps you entertained until the very last word. From simplest of experiences to the most epic of events, whether it be about turtles in a pond or an unforgettable friendship with a drug addict plumber, 'Coma Therapy' flashes you a devilish grin and practically dares you to read on. And if you have any sense in your head, you will.

Amazing

The author has the perfect way of putting things into words. Thoughts seem so extreme at times, he has the creative talent to put it together and bring you to see the whole picture. I am definitely not disappointed. Thank you

Unbelievable and thought provoking

I knew I was going to love this book. Victorino has the most jaw dropping lyrics and I knew that anyone as passionate as him, who would spend countless hours promoting his hard earned first effort has a reason to be proud.....and more importantly a reason to be heard. So if you are looking in to buying this book and have true appreciation for great writing and even more appreciation for someone out there making their dreams reality on their own terms, then go fo this book.....I won't say it will change your life because it all depends on how you read it but it will no doubt make you question your thoughts and the outside world around you. ~lindsay craven~

Support This Engaging New Book!

Coma therapy is captivating. Victorino's writing style is engaging, uninhibited, thought provoking, easy to follow, full of raw energy and emotion. He is able to tap into the shared human experience by expressing his own unique, individual experiences. Reading this fresh new work is like relaxing in front of a campfire, drinking a beer, and having a good conversation with a dear friend. After reading each piece I was left with a different reflection, thought and emotion. Everytime. This is what a writer should endeavor to accomplish with their readers. Victorino's writing found a way to connect with me as a reader, however I doubt this was intentional. His prose is so personal that it reads like a diary almost. Perhaps that is the magic of it all? Coma Therapy is a must have not only for Strata fans, but for the artists, lovers, dreamers, thinkers of this generation. I would encourage everyone, from all walks of all life, to add this book to their collection. This book was entirely self published, which is quite an impressive feat in itself. Victorino deserves to be very proud of this project, and if you love great literature you should support him by purchasing this book.

Amazing book!!

Once again, Eric Victorino's artistic talent is put into this great free-verse poetry book. I couldn't put it down and I finished it the day I received it in the mail. All of the poems are awesome but the one I found the most interesting was "It's A People Business." All of the experiences in his life, personally and with his band, come to life in this book. Please check it out! It's worth every penny!!
