The Great Forgetting by James Renner
5.0
Man oh man. Mr. Renner has done it again!
This meditation on memory and obligation came across my radar at an interesting time. My own grandmother recently passed due to complications from Parkinson's and Dementia...leaving the questions of accurate memory front and center. I've seen what happens to a person when their personal histories are tampered with. In the end, an interesting question wandered across my mind. Which of the two opposing realities were more "true"?
As before, the less you know about this book going in, the happier you will be when the plot blindsides you with sheer awesomeness. Read it. Then read it again.
Thanks for giving me more things to ponder, Mr. Renner. Keep up the good work!
