"Every single cell in the human body replaces itself over a period of seven years. That means there's not even the smallest part of you now that was part of you seven years ago."When I finished reading Steven Hall's debut novel, "The Raw Shark Texts" I wasn't sure if it was brilliant, or if it was rubbish. I was not even sure that I was smart enough to tell the difference."The Raw Shark Texts" tells the story of Eric Sanderson. It opens as he awakens in a room with no idea of who or where he is. He finds a note to call one Dr. Randle, who will help him make sense of what is going on. It seems that he is suffering from memory loss, which is in some way tied to the tragic, accidental death of his girlfriend Clio a few years earlier. Dr. Randle is some help, but shortly after arriving back home, Eric receives a letter from himself; apparently mailed months earlier. In it, he tells himself not to trust Dr. Randle, and that things are not what they seem. It is signed - "The first Eric Sanderson". That's when things get interesting. It's close to impossible to explain the story from here. Eric gets attacked by a shark in his bedroom. When he starts reading the letters from "the first Eric Sanderson" he learns that this shark is a "conceptual fish " that feeds on people memories.What follows is a story about the deep loss you feel when you lose someone you love. It's a story about the power of memory and an exploration of what make us "us". It's a story about ideas and identity, about shared experiences, about the ties that bind us together. Most importantly, it's a story about finding the strength to define who you are, and will be, on your own terms.It's a frightening, funny and daring mess.There is myth and movies, classic novels, philosophy and psychology, all served up with a hefty dose of pop culture. It is a multimedia reading experience .Hall uses text, images, and visual concepts. It's not only a book you need to read - it's a book you need to see.

A friend of mine recommended this book to me a year or so ago, but I've only got around to reading it recently.Not wanting to give too much away, The Raw Shark Texts follows Eric Sanderson who loses his memory, and upon trying to put the pieces of his past together discovers he is under attack from a powerful force.When I started the book, I immediately couldn't put it down. It draws the reader into Eric's strange circumstances from the very word go. As I got further into the text, I became increasingly impressed with the writer's creativity and imagination. However, to my disappointment the story begins to drag midway through. That's not to say the story loses it's way, or becomes any less imaginative. It simply suffers from going on too long (about 100 pages too long in my view). At the conclusion, there is much left to the reader's interpretation, but annoyingly there are also questions left unaddressed.I'd still recommend this book to anyone ready for a fun and crazy read. I'll also look forward to the author's future publications.

If Mark Z. Danielewski and Haruki Murakami got together to write a romantic/mystery/horror story, it might turn out something like "Raw Shark Texts," the debut novel by Steven Hall. While the initial handling of some concepts is a bit clumsy (unspace?), the vivid writing and clever twists come together nicely. It's weird, stark and bittersweet.A young man wakes up with total amnesia. A doctor explains to him that he's suffering from dissociative disorder, due to the loss of his beloved girlfriend Clio. The man -- Eric Sanderson -- attempts to muddle back into a life he doesn't recognize... but soon starts receiving letters and packages from "the first Eric Sanderson," warning him of something far more sinister. He tries to ignore the letters, but strange occurrances start haunting him.The letters include items encoded with info, transcribed memories of his last days with his beloved Clio, and the revelation of what destroyed his memories -- a Ludovician, a conceptual shark existing in un-space. Now Eric -- and a strange girl who is strangely reminiscent of Clio -- try to escape the conceptual beast, and salvage what is left of his memory and life.Lots of movies and books start off with an amnesiac seeking answers. But the story of "Raw Shark Texts" is a bit different: a postmodern horror/romance/mystery/action novel, which spins up some surreal creations, and doesn't give a tidy answer to its questions. In a way, it's a story about how the sadness and dreams of lost love can devour our minds. Yet it doesn't have to be the end -- love can be found again.It would have been a disaster (conceptual sharks?), if he weren't such a solid writer -- he spins up the complex, wrenching emotions of a lost soul, written in vivid, colourful prose ("her normal smile turns sharp like little blades, and her eyes go all shiny and electric"). Yet his writing also gets dark and grotesque, such as Eric's confrontation with the soulless, disintegrating Mr. Nobody.Like Danielewski, Hall has lots of typographic trickery (sharks and lampreys composed of words, blurred postcards, distorted books) that adds an extra surreality to the story. And there's the concepts of the Ludovician and unspace -- all the empty in-between places of the world -- which are introduced rather clumsily and hastily, but which are fascinating in themselves.Eric himself is a likable guy -- geeky, mild-mannered, and loving, and who is tormented by the loss he can't remember, and the fear of losing what is left of himself. The other characters are well drawn as well -- his past and future girlfriends most of all, with their little quirks and oddities. And of course, that adorable cat Ian."The Raw Shark Texts" has some first-time stumbles, but Stephen Hall's debut is a clever mix of intellectual horror, romantic loss, and philosophical struggle with the emptiness of a strange, vivid world. An astounding postmodern thriller.
