«Hey Nostradamus!» is the novel by Douglas Coupland, published by Flamingo in hardcover (336 pages, in English).
A shooting at a Vancouver high school kills Cheryl Anway, a pregnant teenager secretly married to Jason. Ten years later, Jason moves between memory gaps and vivid recollections of the massacre, while his father takes refuge in faith and his mother in alcohol. Several voices narrate the aftermath: guilt, grief, and the search for meaning.
