The Memory Police by Yōko Ogawa (274 pages)
Genre: Dystopian Fiction, Literary Fiction

Summary:
On an unnamed island, objects begin to disappear—and once they vanish, the memory of them does too. Only a few can still remember, and they must live in fear of the Memory Police, who ensure forgotten things stay forgotten. The Memory Police is a haunting and lyrical novel about loss, memory, and state control. Quiet yet powerful, it explores the fragility of identity and the quiet resilience of resistance in a world slipping away piece by piece.
