The Raw Shark Texts.
I read this book about a month ago and it BLEW MY MIND.
The Blurb...
"A man wakes up in terror, choking for air, in an unfamiliar bedroom of an empty house. He had no memories and no sense of his own identity. The licence in his wallet tells him his name is Eris Sanderson. Letters and parcels arrive in careful sequence, signed: the First Eric Sanderson. He accumulates a set of instructions for negotiating this unknown and obscurely dangerous life. He reads his own past and there is t called Clio, who was loved-by him?-and who died. His dreams fill with the memory of loss.
Then the attacks begin. And now, armed with his survival manual and accompanied by a cat called Ian, Eric will set off to find out what it is that's trying to hunt him down and destroy him."
And considering how abstract that was in relation to the actual story, here is an excerpt read by the one and only Tilda Swinton. (This does not contain spoilers)
WHAT IS IN THE CONCEPTUAL WATER???
