Tell Me an Ending
by Jo Harkin
3. A new story I haven’t read before. Slightly science fiction, but only because it isn’t our reality yet!
Technology has gotten to a point where you can have a specific memory of an event erased from your life as long as it is a week period or less. You simply go the the Nepenthe hospital and have it taken care of. You can choose to remember or not remember that you had this memory erasure done.
This follows the story of 4 characters who chose to have their memories erased but they are having slight flashes of it, maybe…and are confused. Thus begins the development of their stories and what they do about it.
This will be a book I will think back on. The whole concept of memory removal is fascinating if not alarming! Thinking of who we are and who we will become because of our life experiences and memories is an integral part of our life! I don’t know that I’d be willing to have a memory erased regardless of how awful it might be….but then again….
Thank you to NetGalley and Scribner for an advanced e-copy of this book.
