WHAT IF YOU COULD REMEMBER EVERYTHING, EXCEPT THE DAY YOU DISAPPEARED?

A young woman, Jane O., arrives in a psychiatrist's office. She's been suffering a series of worrying episodes: amnesia, premonitions, hallucinations and an inexplicable sense of dread. But as the psychiatrist struggles to solve the mystery of what is happening in Jane's mind, she suddenly goes missing. When she is found a day later, unconscious in a park, she has no memory of what has happened to her.

Are Jane's strange experiences related to the overwhelm of single motherhood, or long-buried trauma from her past? Why is she having visions of a young man who died twenty years ago, who warns her of disaster ahead? Jane's symptoms will lead her psychiatrist to question everything he once thought he knew . . .

Profound and beautifully written, THE STRANGE CASE OF JANE O. is a speculative mystery about memory, identity and fate, a mesmerising story about the bonds of love between a mother and child, a man and a woman, and the haunting, unexplained mysteries of the human mind.

Reseñas de la crítica

An extraordinary book. The author takes familiar psychological thriller tropes and throws them up in the air to produce something truly original . . . The flawless storytelling is shared by Jane and Dr Byrd, and produces a narrative that successfully operates on several levels - simultaneously asking questions about the nature of being alive while still being a good old-fashioned page-turner.
Both moving and unexpected . . . An unusual, involving read. Jane's case is strange indeed; more than that, it lingers in the mind.
A mesmerizing tale about the mysteries of the brain, the limits of rationality and the magic of love.
A novel that begins quietly becomes an exhilarating and riveting must-read and then read-again.
An astonishing novel-a mind-blowing blend of page-turning mystery and deep philosophical inquiry into the nature of memory and reality itself. Karen Thompson Walker has created an unputdownable book with a haunting twist ending I'll be thinking about for a long time.
A tantalising and satisfying mystery.
Heart-expanding . . . inquisitive, brilliantly-crafted. If you enjoyed Kazuo Ishaguro's Never Let Me Go, Stephen Gosz's non-fiction The Examined Life, or The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat, Oliver Sacks, then I think you'll love this novel.
Mesmerising.
Part deep psychological drama, part twisty, sci-fi-laced mystery, this genre-bending tale is like nothing we've read before . . . when Jane disappears, her case ramps up into a true mystery, stacked with genius, jaw-dropping twists . . . By the time Walker had us hunting for Jane throughout NYC through snippets of CCTV footage, we were questioning reality on every level - and loving every minute of it.
A page-turning mystery that's simultaneously moving and often nail-biting.
The Strange Case of Jane O. is a brilliant and unforgettable novel, at once a metaphysical thriller, a psychological mystery, and a profound love story-a book for every haunted heart. I couldn't put it down.
In her brilliant and mesmerizing new novel, Karen Thompson Walker invites readers to consider the mystery of the human brain and asks thrilling and vital questions about perception, memory, consciousness, and the limits of our known world. Elegant, propulsive, ingeniously structured, and intellectually rich, The Strange Case of Jane O. is both mind-bending and soul-altering. I loved it.
Scenes vibrate with the high-key hopes and anxieties of adolescence, the inherent loneliness of being a person in the world.
