In a near-future Africa, memory is both currency and weapon.
Ayana Okoth is a gifted Memory Archivist at the prestigious Mwanga Facility, expertly walking the line between her high-tech career and the ancient, oral traditions of her coastal homeland. She believes in healing trauma through carefully curated forgetting-until she is assigned the most controversial case of her career.
General Oguta, a former warlord rebranded as a statesman, has invoked the Right to Forget to erase his most horrific war crimes. The nation is torn between those who see this as a path to peace and the survivors who demand justice. When Ayana delves into his sealed memories, she uncovers a truth far more dangerous than a single massacre: a conspiracy that reaches the highest levels of power, threatening to bury the past forever.
As the official archives are manipulated and a shadowy underground movement weaponizes stolen memories, Ayana is forced to flee the sterile halls of the Mwanga Facility. Her quest for the truth leads her deep beneath the city of Ngamia and back to the sacred fields of her ancestors, where the true cost of forgetting-and the transformative power of remembrance-is etched into the very soil.
A stunning novel of Africanfuturism, The Right to Forget is a gripping and philosophical exploration of identity, the scars of history, and the stories we choose to carry. This is a story that questions whether true peace is built on justice, or on silence.
