Books about memory can get sentimental in a hurry. Before I Forget sounds like it may have more nerve than that.

I am usually drawn to work that can look backward without sanding down the rough parts. Memory is not tidy, and the books that admit that tend to feel more alive to me.

If this one stays plainspoken and exact, I can see it being the sort of book that lingers longer than a louder title would.
