Welcome to DFW Young & Social book club! This session, we dive into the hauntingly beautiful world of "The Memory Police" by Yoko Ogawa, a profound and mesmerizing novel that explores the fragility of memory and identity.

In "The Memory Police," Ogawa weaves a dystopian tale set on an unnamed island where everyday objects and the memories associated with them are mysteriously vanishing. As the inhabitants grapple with these disappearances, a young writer fights to retain her memories with the help of an unlikely ally. This poignant narrative delves into themes of loss, control, and the resilience of the human spirit. Join us as we discuss this compelling story, unraveling its intricate layers and exploring the powerful messages it conveys.

Schedule:

  • 7:00 to 7:15 PM - Arrive, socialize, and get comfortable.

  • 7:15 to 8:30 PM - Deep dive into conversation over Chapters 1-9
