He then begins to relive his life with intact memories of the next 25 years, until, despite his best efforts at cardiac health, he dies of a heart attack, again, in 1988. Replay is the account of 43-year-old radio journalist Jeff Winston, who dies of a heart attack in 1988 and awakens back in 1963 in his 18-year-old body as a student at Atlanta's Emory University. Lupoff explored a similar premise in his 1973 short story " 12:01". Its time-loop concept has been referenced as a precursor of Harold Ramis' comedy-drama Groundhog Day (1993). This happens repeatedly, with the man playing out his life differently in each cycle. He relives his life with all his memories of the previous 25 years intact. The novel tells of a 43-year-old man who dies and wakes up back in 1963 in his 18-year-old body. It won the 1988 World Fantasy Award for Best Novel. Replay is a fantasy novel by American writer Ken Grimwood, first published by Arbor House in 1986.
