Jenna Fox wakes from a coma with no memory of her past, only fragments of a life she can't fully grasp. As she pieces together her identity, unsettling questions arise: Are these memories truly hers, or is there a deeper mystery at play? Set in a near-future America, Jenna's journey delves into the ethics of biotechnology and the essence of humanity. As she uncovers the truth, Jenna must confront the reality of who she is and what it means to be human. What secrets lie beneath her reconstructed life?
From the publisher
Who is Jenna Fox? Seventeen-year-old Jenna has been told that is her name. She has just awoken from a coma, they tell her, and she is still recovering from a terrible accident in which she was involved a year ago. But what happened before that? Jenna doesn’t remember her life. Or does she? And are the memories really hers? This fascinating novel represents a stunning new direction for acclaimed author Mary Pearson. Set in a near future America, it takes readers on an unforgettable journey through questions of bio-medical ethics and the nature of humanity. Mary Pearson’s vividly drawn characters and masterful writing soar to a new level of sophistication. The Adoration of Jenna Fox is a 2009 Bank Street - Best Children’s Book of the Year.
