Clarissa Oakes es una novela histórica del autor británico Patrick O'Brian, publicada por primera vez en 1992. Es la decimoquinta entrega de la serie Aubrey-Maturin, que narra las aventuras del capitán Jack Aubrey y el médico Stephen Maturin durante las guerras napoleónicas. En esta entrega, la trama se centra en Clarissa Oakes, una joven convicta que se convierte en objeto de intriga y controversia a bordo del HMS Surprise. La novela explora temas de justicia, moralidad y las complejidades de las relaciones humanas en el contexto de la vida naval del siglo XIX.

Patrick O'Brian, born Richard Patrick Russ, was an English novelist and translator, best known for his Aubrey–Maturin series. These sea novels are set in the Royal Navy during the Napoleonic Wars and centre on the friendship of the English naval captain Jack Aubrey and the Irish–Catalan physician Stephen Maturin. The 20-novel series, the first of which is Master and Commander, is known for its well-researched and highly detailed portrayal of early 19th-century life, as well as its authentic and evocative language. A partially finished 21st novel in the series was published posthumously containing facing pages of handwriting and typescript.
