The Memory Police

Not even sure why I'm not giving it 5 stars. I almost, almost feel like making a vlog about it, so amazed I was by this book. It's called Orwellian, because of course there's the all seeing eyes of the Memory police, but there's so much more I could see... what I saw as almost archetypes, as the old man, the editor who was also someone who remembered, her mother who kept things in drawers and then inside sculptures, the attic... her job, her attitude. There's rhythm, and good one - when the memory police got closer I was biting my nails - and there's also so much sadness and the worst of society. And the things that disappeared... and the way they did... it was the first book I absolutely loved in a while, probably the first of this year, and there you go... you dig, and sometimes you find an emerald... (readers will get it).
If you can, try it out and let me know how it was for you. I was mesmerized.
