Description: The temporary amnesiac is a familiar character, playing a pivotal role in many a mystery novel, but Danish novelist Sarvig (1921–1981) gives the trope a more sophisticated spin in this exploration of the nature of identity, originally published in Denmark in 1960. Waking up alone in a room on a mysterious island, "Miriam" is brought up short by the sight of her face in the mirror. She doesn't recognize what she sees, and as she wanders out of the house and around the island, the questions pile up: Where is she? What kind of life is she supposed to have?
