In Memory of Us by Jacqueline Roy
4.5
A pacy fascinating read which focuses on twins Selina and Zora. With a split narrative Zora and Selina tell their story. Selina, in present day is suffering with dementia and her memory is fragmented, meeting up with a face from the past leads to a delving back into her memories, trying to fit the pieces together.
In Memory of Us really took me by surprise, the writing is brilliant, it’s compelling intricate. Memory and identity is the focus, how memory is fluid and unreliable. How it can change in perspective. How identity is formed of so much more than who we are. A brilliant read for book clubs.
