So many secrets are buried within these compound walls. I used to be one of those secrets. After returning to the Diotech compound and undergoing an experimental new memory alteration, Seraphina is now a loyal, obedient servant to Dr. Alixter and the powerful company that created her. Happy and in love with Kaelen, another scientifically-enhanced human designed to be her perfect match, Sera's history with a boy named Zen is just a distant memory from a rebellious past she longs to forget.

She can't stop the memories of Zen from creeping back in.

Which is why the sixteen-year-old girl discovered floating among the wreckage—alive—is making headlines across the globe.

But with every clue only comes more questions. And she's running out of time to answer them. Her only hope is a strangely alluring boy who claims to know her from before the crash. Who claims they were in love. But can she really trust him? And will he be able to protect her from the people who have been making her forget? From popular young adult author Jessica Brody, Unremembered is the start of a compelling and suspenseful new sci-fi series, set in a world where science knows no boundaries, memories are manipulated, and true love can never be forgotten.

Book Description
Shortlisted for the The Great Outdoors Awards – Outdoor Book of the Year 2020 Shortlisted for the Boardman Tasker Award for Mountain Literature 2020 There are strange relics hidden across Scotland's landscape: forgotten places that are touchstones to incredible stories and past lives which still resonate today. Yet why are so many of these 'wild histories' unnoticed and overlooked? And what can they tell us about our own modern identity? From the high mountain passes of an ancient droving route to a desolate moorland graveyard, from uninhabited post-industrial islands and Clearance villages to caves explored by early climbers and the mysterious strongholds of Christian missionaries, Patrick Baker makes a series of journeys on foot and by paddle. Along the way, he encounters Neolithic settlements, bizarre World War Two structures, evidence of illicit whisky production, sacred wells and Viking burial grounds. Combining a rich fusion of travelogue and historical narrative, he threads themes of geology, natural and social history, literature, and industry from the places he visits, discovering connections between people and place more powerful than can be imagined.

Wordsworth's Unremembered Pleasure
Author: Alexander Freer
Publisher:
ISBN: 0198856989
Category : Literary Collections
Languages : en
Pages : 273
Book Description
Wordsworth's Unremembered Pleasure explores the poet's sustained interest in the ethical and aesthetic value of overlooked, underacknowledged, and 'unremembered' pleasures. Such pleasures are marginal and fleeting; they pass by silently and are recognized only retrospectively. Yet they shape the aims, technique, and ultimately the whole affective economy of Wordsworth's writing. Rather than understanding the domain of pleasure to be strictly subjective, personal experience, Wordsworth posits affects and attachments beyond conscious experience or possession. Teasing apart unremembered pleasure from the psychoanalytic concepts of sublimation, repression, and trauma, the book offers new interpretations of both well-known and marginal poems, rethinking familiar oppositions between childhood and maturity, and between sensation and recollection. By tracing affects which are not determinate sensations so much as unacknowledged gifts, it demonstrates how retrospective pleasure undercuts fantasies of purely autonomous experience. It argues for the centrality of surprise: unremembered pleasure promises to disturb, catch out, and remake the person who encounters it. More broadly, it locates in Wordsworth's account of composition the resources to rethink poetic pleasure: not as wish-fulfilment, nor as aesthetic escape, but as an engaged and reparative relation to the world. Book jacket.
