Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. "One of the most gifted novelists of his generation (TIME) gives us a metaphysical literary mystery that is as ambitious as it is intriguing, an investigation of a young woman's violent extinction that also traces her construction of a new and oddly innocent self. She wakes in an emergency room in a London hospital, to a voice that tells her: "You're on your own now. Take care. Be good." She has no knowledge of her name, her past, or even her species. It takes her a while to realize that she is humanand that the beings who threaten, befriend, and violate her are other people. Some of whom seem to know all about her."Powerful and electrifying. Other People is a metaphysical thriller, Kafka reshot in the style of Psycho." J. G. Ballard, author of Empire of the Sun What an amnesiac young woman discovers about her violently erased past is only one of the riddles in this eerie, blackly funny, and sometimes disorienting novel by the author of London Fields. Amis offers a revealing look at how someone with no memory constructs a self in a dangerous world. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
