Paperback. Condición: New. An elegant and haunting dystopian novel about a group of individuals gathered to relearn how to navigate the world after a mysterious illness strips them of their memories.Nestled in an idyllic locale beside the sea, The Centre is a place of rehabilitation and rebuilding. Students arrive nameless, their memories and sense of identity wiped by a strange illness.Each day, they attend classes that will help them relearn the right ways to speak and live; they practice the roles they'll assume once they've graduated and returned to society. In their free time, they negotiate a burgeoning social hierarchy and watch old videotapes together; stories of characters whose names they adopt: Maria, Chandler, Chino, Gunther. But as shards of memories - of pets, lovers, errands, and beloved music - begin to threaten the strict curriculum of The Centre, some students start to question the definitions given to them, and explore the ways in which they might define themselves.A stunning, intimately told story about what makes us who we are, The Definitions examines the limits of language, the power of human connection, and the ways the human spirit can flourish even under the most oppressive conditions."A terrifying glimpse at what happens when language, self and memory are taken from us. Shimmers with intelligence, terror and deep humanity." - Ben Pester, New York Times bestselling author of Dreyer's English"Deceptively gentle and ultimately devastating, The Definitions holds a delicate line between giving us enough to be utterly compelling and quietly paring back enough to keep us guessing. The Center, the narrator and the drifting language will haunt my thoughts, and my words, for some time." -Han Smith, author of Portraits at the Palace of Creativity and Wrecking, shortlisted for the 2024 Goldsmiths Prize"A thrilling novel that asks profound questions about love and language, selfhood and memory. One of those books that you want to read again as soon as you've finished, it consoles even as it frightens, appalls even as it reveals how much we have to treasure. It has earned its place on my shelf of favorite science fiction, alongside Ishiguro, Ravn, Butler, and Chiang." -Louisa Hall, author of Speak and Reproduction. …

paperback. Condición: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.…
