Publisher's Synopsis
What would happen if you could suddenly remember everything that had ever happened to you as fresh as if it were yesterday? This is the fate of the residence of the town of Clarence, who fall under the spell of a powerful drug that unlocks their memories. As the past comes flooding back without the buffer of time, the townspeople find themselves awash in reminiscences of love, death, war, childhood, happiness, sorrow and sins. A bittersweet novel about the unreliability of memory and the bliss of forgetting from an impressive and exciting new talent.
