Forgetfulness in contemporary cultural narratives

“I don’t know if you will believe me, but I do not recognize people in the street to whom I was introduced only a month before. In addition, I completely forget my own works. This winter I reread one of my novels—Crime and Punishment—which I wrote ten years ago, and more than two thirds of the novel was completely unfamiliar to me, just as if I had not written it, to such an extent had I managed to forget it.”

FYODOR MIKHAILOVICH DOSTOYEVSKY

in a letter to Leonid Vasilyevich on March 27, 1878
