Man Walks Into a Room by Nicole Krauss

4.0

A very interesting premise. I man is found in the desert with no memories past the age of 12 but after hospitalization he has the ability to make more. To complicate matters he has a wife but has no recollection of their relationship. How does he cope with this, what possibilities does this open up for him. How does this effect those around him. Added on to this Krauss adds in interesting subplot about what it might be possible to do with a 'blank canvas' of a mind. The author puts together a very interesting novel, that starts out slowly but quickly picks up place to a satisfying ending. Well written with believable characters, a little sad but worth the read.
