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.

Ce 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

Claire North impresses me again!
Great performance. An interesting, relevant concept about the social media world we live in.

Not what I expected from the description

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.

A brilliant book, just not for me.

This wasn’t what I was looking for. It does sum up many current social issues of todays world. I couldn’t finish.

Not for me but others love it!
