No Time to Forget

When Memory Becomes a Product - Fourteen Short Stories

De: Richard Fenton

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

In New York, ClearMind Industries promises a clean miracle: erase the worst memories, replace pain with peace, and give people their lives back.

For some, it works.

For others, the side effects don’t look like healing at all.

A community organizer returns from “treatment” calmer—too calm—steering protests into silence. A battered woman can’t remember why she ran. A therapist who asks the wrong questions disappears. An engineer finds proof the system isn’t optimizing wellness…it’s optimizing usefulness. A journalist publishes what no one is supposed to see, and suddenly the city begins to wobble—markets twitch, violence spikes, and the people in charge don’t deny it…they manage it.

Across fourteen linked stories, strangers become unwilling threads in a single tightening net—patients, employees, spouses, regulators, investors, and the unseen hand pulling them all toward “stability.”

Because when memory becomes a product, consent becomes negotiable.

And when relief requires obedience…

who decides what you’re allowed to forget?

No Time to Forget is a relentless psychological thriller set in modern New York, where hope is weaponized, love becomes a pathway, and the price of peace may be your mind.
