Don't forget the flowers

Don't forget the flowers - © 2026 The Ancient Grimoire

Remembering the good things... What is she doing there, all alone, on her swing? When Izumi, as every New Year, visits his mother, he finds her disoriented in the nearby park... Preoccupied with his work and his unborn child, the young man initially pays no attention. Before realizing the obvious: Yuriko, who raised him alone, is slowly losing her memory... Doctors confirm she has Alzheimer's. From then on, all those things Izumi had forgotten come back to him from the past – the good things that he will now have to remember for both of them... This book is part of the French literature selection for the 2023 Grand Prix des électeurs. - © 2026 Le Grimoire Ancien
