The Memory Police by Yōko Ogawa

Join us for our May in-person event:The Memory Police by Yōko Ogawa
Step into a haunting world where memories vanish and forgetting is enforced. On an unnamed island, everyday objects — from birds to books — begin to disappear, and the mysterious Memory Police ensure they are never spoken of again. In this quietly powerful dystopian novel, Ogawa explores what it means to hold on to the past — and to ourselves — in the face of erasure. Thought-provoking and beautifully written, The Memory Police promises rich conversation on identity, loss, and the quiet forms of resistance. NPR Review
