Can you recommend some books about short term memory loss fiction?

Another is 'The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks' by Rebecca Skloot. While not directly about short - term memory loss, it does explore medical conditions and the impact on patients. In some cases, the treatments and diseases mentioned can cause memory - related issues. It's a fascinating look at medical ethics and patient experiences.

There was a woman who had short - term memory loss. She went to the grocery store. She made a list at home but by the time she got to the store, she had forgotten what was on the list. She walked around the aisles, seeing items that she thought she might need but not being sure if they were on her original list. It was a frustrating experience for her.

Another great one is 'The Forgetting Time' by Sharon Guskin. It explores the concept of past - life memories in children, which is related to a kind of memory loss in a way. A mother tries to figure out why her son has memories that seem to be from another life. It's a fascinating and heart - wrenching story.

Sure. Once my friend was looking everywhere for his glasses. He was so frustrated. Then I pointed to his head and there they were. He had just put them on top of his head and completely forgotten.

One such book is 'Still Alice' by Lisa Genova. It's a poignant story about a woman's experience with early - onset Alzheimer's disease, which is a form of memory loss. It really delves into the emotional and mental turmoil she goes through as her memory deteriorates.

Head injuries are often a cause in short - term memory loss stories. When the brain is physically damaged, like in a car accident or a fall, the areas responsible for short - term memory can be affected. There was a case where a cyclist hit his head on the pavement during an accident. After that, he would forget conversations he had just had and tasks he was about to do. Additionally, nutritional deficiencies, such as a lack of vitamin B12, can also play a role in short - term memory loss. If the body doesn't have enough of this essential vitamin, the nervous system, including the brain's memory functions, can be impaired.

Forgetting recent events also happens a lot in these stories. Say, you went to the store this morning and by afternoon, someone asks you what you bought and you can't remember at all. It's like your short - term memory just decided to take a little vacation. And when you do remember later, it seems so silly that you couldn't recall it before.

Well, 'Still Alice' is quite well - known. It has been widely read and even made into a movie. It gives a very accurate and empathetic portrayal of what it's like to live with memory loss due to Alzheimer's.

One great book is 'The Memory Police' by Yoko Ogawa. It's a haunting and thought - provoking story set in a world where memories are disappearing. Another is 'Remembrance of Things Past' by Marcel Proust, which delves deep into the nature of memory through the narrator's recollections. And 'A Tale for the Time Being' by Ruth Ozeki also has elements of memory fiction as it weaves together different timelines and memories.

I recommend "The Two-Faced Wife", a modern romance novel about a wealthy family. The male and female protagonists were originally enemies, but the female protagonist lost her looks due to an accident. In the end, the two of them got together. The male and female protagonists of this novel had very high IQ. The plot was complicated and interesting. I hope you like this fairy's recommendation. Muah ~😗
