Seven Thompson and the Art of Remembering

Summary

In 2007 New England, 17-year-old Seven Thompson navigates the aftermath of a traumatic event that takes all of his personal memories. With the help of his girlfriend, Lucy, he sets out to complete a list of seven adventures in hopes of sparking his memory of that night and before.

“All I ever wanted was peace. I wanted silence. I wanted the truth to be a warm blanket, not a stabbing echo in my ribs. And as I stare down, I begin to seek it. My toes hang off the edge of a bridge, decorated in my busted-up Converse. And just like that, every holiday, birthday, and friend crashed away like the waves below my feet. I was seventeen when I lost my memories. I was seventeen when I lost myself.”
