Bagiku bacaan ini terasa suram, kelam, dan gelisah. Aku juga dibuat penasaran dengan asal muasal Polisi Kenangan. Tindakan bengis mereka juga membuatku muak. Satu hal yang aku sadari saat membaca ini adalah bagaimana "distopia" menjadi genre yang aku hindari.

In the novel, the unnamed protagonist fights in silence against the cruel regime by hiding the missing objects that her mother left in her basement, and by hiding a fugitive (someone the government is trying to get a hold of) in her house.
A classic case of dystopian literature, where the plot revolves around the oppressive rules of the government as people throw away their priced belongings as they are ordered to disappear.
The novel is postmodern in nature as it features metafiction; story within a story that reflects themes of the novel itself. The novel reflects the reality of power and control to manipulate citizens to intimidate and garner fear among people.
