The resulting essays address a provocative range of topics: the explosion of interest in the memoir, the recovered-memory movement, America in the grip of an amnesia plague, and the need for coherent stories of our past to help us organize our present. Here is Patricia Hampl, divulging the likelihood that she will continue to reveal other people's secrets, despite the documented cost. Here is Bernard Cooper's belated dismay and amazement at realizing just how public is the publication of his memoirs. Here are Baxter's own musings on forgetfulness-- political, cultural, and literary--and the shame and allure it holds. Throughout, these fascinating essays illuminate the art of remembering in a time when memory has become a highly measurable commodity.
