A gripping literary thriller from an exciting new voice in fiction Hailed as 'one to watch' by the UK's Telegraph, Sam Taylor is one of the most imaginative and innovative young writers at work today. With The Amnesiac, his United States debut, he incorporates a murder mystery and a forgotten manuscript into an exhilarating and intelligent novel. When twenty-nine-year-old James Purdew returns to England from his home in Amsterdam, it is to discover what happened during three earlier years of his life that he cannot recall. What he finds, in an old house with a tragic history, is a nineteenth-century manuscript that begins to seem less and less like a work of fiction-and more like the key to his own lost past. Memory and amnesia, fiction and reality, destiny and randomness, heaven and hell-all converge to form an engrossing gothic story that is sure to appeal to fans of Carlos Ruiz Zafon's The Shadow of the Wind.

In the year 2035, a mysterious disease ravages the minds of innocents around the globe. It is called Empty Mind Syndrome, and those afflicted with it cannot retain memories for longer than a day. Those with the most severe cases cannot retain memories for even a few hours. Unable to understand the disease, the world shuns its sufferers, who have come to be called Amnesiacs, and the Amnesiacs are forced to live in a world that does not know how to cope with their strange affliction. Darya is a fifteen year old orphan surviving on the streets of London. She is also one of the "dreaded" Amnesiacs. Her life consists of writing everything she does and thinks every day in a journal, so that she may later read it and remember, even though she never fully remembers. Her life is hardly remarkable, but one day she meets another Amnesiac. The two become fast friends, and when her friend is volunteered to join a clinical trial that is testing medication for Empty Mind sufferers, Darya goes with him. At the study, they meet other Amnesiacs. It is soon obvious, however, that the program is not simply a medical study to cure Empty Mind. It becomes clear from all the tests and talk of "enhanced perceptions" that Amnesiacs are not simply unable to retain memories-and that there is more to the program than meets the eye. When tragedy strikes the group, the Amnesiac patients suddenly fear for their lives, and they are unable to trust anyone but themselves. They must escape... but will there be a price for their freedom?

With Joyce, Proust, and Faulkner in mind, we have come to understand the novel as a form with intimate ties to the impulses and processes of memory. This study contends that this common perception is an anachronism that distorts our view of the novel. Based on an investigation of representative novels, Amnesiac Selves shows that the Victorian novel bears no such secure relation to memory, and, in fact, it tries to hide, evade, and eliminate remembering. Dames argues that the notable scarcity and distinct unease of representations of remembrance in the nineteenth-century British novel signal an art form struggling to define and construct new concepts of memory. By placing nineteenth-century British fiction from Jane Austen to Wilkie Collins alongside a wide variety of Victorian psychologies and theories of mind, Nicholas Dames evokes a novelistic world, and a culture, before modern memory--one dedicated to a nostalgic evasion of detailed recollection which our time has largely forgotten.

"WHO IS JENNY KYLE? " Seems as if everybody in Bridal Veil Falls is asking that question. The feisty redhead with the high-powered motorcycle made quite an impression on the little Montana town—even before the accident that stole her memory… Sheriff Tyler Cook—a champion rodeo rider who'd walked away from a million-dollar career to become the law in his hometown—wants to know her story, too. But folks are starting to think his interest isn't purely professional… And the sparks flying between the sassy stranger and the rock-solid Western lawman have the town wondering if she'll be sticking around—even after she remembers who she is…

A haunted record of a life devoted to the visual art of the cinema and the written word, by Ireland's greatest director and one of her finest novelists. In this vivid, moving and strange memoir, Neil Jordan – the author of classic fiction like The Past, Sunrise with Sea Monster and Night in Tunisia, and the creator of celebrated movies like Angel, Mona Lisa, The Crying Game and Interview with the Vampire – reaches deep into his own past and that of his family. His mother was a painter, his father an inspector of schools who was visited by ghosts, and Jordan grew up on the edge of an abandoned aristocratic estate in north Dublin whose mysterious ruins fed his imagination. Passionate about music, he played in bands and theatre groups and met, at University College Dublin, a young radical called Jim Sheridan. Together they staged unforgettable dramatic productions that hinted at their future careers. His first collection of stories and first novel, Night in Tunisia and The Past, were met with acclaim, but Jordan was also drawn to the freedom and visual richness of film, and worked with the great English director John Boorman on his Arthurian epic Excalibur. His own first movie with Stephen Rea, Angel, was a brilliant angular take on the horrific violence of the Troubles, and in the years since then his films have combined in a unique way, intense supernatural elements with reflections on violence and sexuality. Jordan describes his work with Stephen Rea, Jaye Davidson, Bob Hoskins, Tom Cruise and many others, but this is not a conventional story of life in the movies. The book is an eerie meditation on loss, love and creativity, on inspiration and influence, by one of the most unusual artists Ireland has produced.

This is a detailed study of two intriguing figures in early rabbinic literature, shown to be products of the literary creativity of rabbinic storytellers who convey a particular ideology through the image of the rabbinic heroes they portray: Elisha ben Abuya, considered as apostate and sinner, and Eleazar ben Arach, known as the one who forgot his Torah.
