Publisher's Review
A life created by overlapping 111 past lives
Everyone has probably thought about their past or next life at least once.
Through the protagonist René, Berber asserts that this life is not everything.
Another main character is the Atlantean Geb, of course, but also a World War I veteran, a countess living in an old castle, an ancient Roman galley rower, a Cambodian monk, a beautiful woman from an Indian palace, and even a Japanese samurai… … .
Each time Rene opens a door, life unfolds in different eras and countries.
But behind the door of memory, treasures and traps coexist.
Throughout his past life, Rene has escaped from crises and also fallen into them.
A fast-paced, unpredictable adventure captivates us.
Can you remember who you really are?
Opal, the hypnotist who performs in [Pandora's Box], poses provocative questions to the audience.
"Can you remember who you really are?" The question of how much memory accounts for human identity and how humans create and preserve memories is the subject of this work.
Rene is extremely forgetful in everyday life, to the point of forgetting conversations, but through hypnosis, he is able to access deep memories that are normally inaccessible to most people.
It is also significant that René's occupation is a history teacher, because history is, in other words, collective memory.
While René's father, Emil, is losing his memory due to Alzheimer's, his hypnotist, Opal, is suffering from an almost incomparable memory.
In addition, if you pay close attention to how each character in "Memory" relates to memory and how they deal with it, the novel will become even more enjoyable.
A word from the translator
The imagination of "Memory," which freely expands by borrowing the materials of hypnosis, past life, and Atlantis, confirms that Bernard Werber is still a young writer, and once again presents us with the pleasure of reading a novel.
