"Memory Boy" by Will Weaver follows the journey of 16-year-old Miles, who struggles with a mysterious illness that causes him to forget bits of his past. As the world around him changes and his memories fade, he embarks on a quest to rediscover his identity and the essence of his relationships. Set in a post-apocalyptic landscape where society is fractured, Miles navigates the challenges of survival while grappling with his own shifting reality. Through encounters with other survivors, he learns the importance of memory, love, and the connections that define who we are. [Generated by language model - please report any problems].
