Unknown - nieuw boek

Martin Harris returns home after a short absence to find that his wife doesn't know him, another man is living in his house under his name, and the neighbors think he's a lunatic. Worse, not a single person - family, colleague, or doctor - can vouch for him. Worse still, the impostor shares all of Martin's memories, experiences, and knowledge, down to the last detail. He is, in fact, a more convincing Martin than Martin himself. Is it a conspiracy? Amnesia? An elaborate hoax or paranoid delusion? In his high-powered new novel, Didier van Cauwelaert explores the illusory nature of identity and the instability of the things we take for granted. Dispossessed of his job, family, name, and past, Martin Harris is an Everyman caught in an absurd yet alarmingly convincing nightmare that seems to have no exit and that resists every explanation.
