An unconventional detective story about memory and reality.

James Purdew is quietly obsessed with his own past - in particular three years of his life, about which he remembers nothing. So he travels back to the city of H, where he lived during those years, and finds a familiar house, now derelict. Stripping the wallpaper from one of the rooms, James discovers the first chapter of Confessions of a Killer, a 19th-century thriller, which seems to offer clues to a tragedy that took place in the house many years before, and one which James feel inexorably linked to . . . A journey into a mysterious world of fiction and reality, The Amnesiac is a compelling novel by one of Britain's most innovative young storytellers.

Industry Reviews

"'The Amnesiac is an original, derivative, exasperating, tender triumph... it announces his arrival as one to watch.' Daily Telegraph"
