Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind meets Past Lives in this gripping emotional story of
two childhood friends navigating the fallout of one erasing their memory of the other from
acclaimed author Sarah Suk. Seventeen-year-old Yena Bae is spending the summer in Busan South
Korea working at her mom’s memory-erasing clinic. She feels lost and disconnected from people
something she’s felt ever since her best friend Lucas moved away four years ago without a
word leaving her in limbo. Eighteen-year-old Lucas Pak is also in Busan for the summer
visiting his grandpa who was recently diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease. But he isn’t just
here for a regular visit—he’s determined to get his beloved grandpa into the new study running
at the clinic a trial program seeking to restore lost memories. When Yena runs into Lucas
again she’s shocked to see him and even more shocked to discover that he doesn’t remember a
thing about her. He’s completely erased her from his memories and she has no idea why. As the
two reconnect they unravel the mystery and heartache of what happened between them all those
years ago—and must now reckon with whether they can forge a new beginning together.
