About Forest of Memory by Mary Robinette Kowal
In this science-fiction novella, Katya deals in “Authenticities” and “Captures,” items and experiences whose value depends on verifiable provenance and nostalgia for the past. Her wealthy clients want proof of where these things came from—and other people’s lives have value, too.
When Katya’s AI stops communicating and she is cut off from the cloud, a man she encounters in the forest takes the AI and holds her against her will. With no records to support her account, Katya must rely on being believed. The novella may appeal to readers of speculative fiction interested in memory, technology, authenticity, and uncertainty.
