The Memory Police
A Novel
Yoko Ogawa
A haunting Orwellian novel about state surveillance where objects start disappearing on an unnamed island. While most inhabitants are oblivious, those with the power to remember have reason to fear the draconian Memory Police. When a struggling novelist discovers her editor is in danger, she comes up with a plan to hide him. A surreal fable about memory, loss, and the power of writing to preserve the past.
