À propos de cet audio
The World Fantasy Award-winning thriller about a girl no one can remember, from the acclaimed author of The First Fifteen Lives of Harry August and 84K.
My name is Hope Arden, and you won't know who I am. But we've met before—a thousand times.
It started when I was 16 years old. A father forgetting to drive me to school. A mother setting the table for three, not four. A friend who looks at me and sees a stranger.
No matter what I do, the words I say, the crimes I commit, you will never remember who I am.
That makes my life difficult. It also makes me dangerous.
The Sudden Appearance of Hope is a riveting and heartbreaking exploration of identity and existence, about a forgotten girl whose story will stay with you forever.
©2016 Claire North (P)2016 Hachette AudioCe que les critiques en disent
"[Narrator] Gillian Burke's performance is unforgettable. It's smooth, polished, and oh so graceful.... Burke's performance is as addictive as the story itself." (AudioFile)
"Beautifully written, with a protagonist who is both tragic and heroic, the novel is remarkably powerful and deeply memorable, the latest in a string of terrific books from this newly emerged star in the genre-blending universe."—Booklist (starred review)
"The experience of sitting with it, sinking into it, aching along with Hope as her loneliness shapes and breaks her, was wonderful, painful and moving."—NPR

A brilliant book, just not for me.
This is an expertly written and beautifully executed story full of thoughtful creativity, intrigue and fascinating random facts along the way. Still, I struggled to connect to the characters which made this book challenging to stick with. In the end, I’m glad I finished it, but it was hit or miss at times as to whether or not to give up on the story line and call it quits partway through.
I imagine this book would make an excellent choice for school book assignments, essays, and book club conversations about what it means to be alive and to be remembered.
