Before We Forgot is a tender, deeply human novel about memory, aging, friendship, and the quiet loves that shape a lifetime. Set in a quiet Kerala colony, the story follows Rajan Pillai, a retired school principal slowly losing his present to Alzheimer's, and Bhaskar Nair, his fiercely loyal friend racing against time. As old bonds are tested, children return from faraway cities, and a first love reappears after forty years, the novel gently asks: what truly remains when memory begins to fade? Heartbreaking yet warm, this is a story about the people who carry us - especially when we can no longer carry ourselves.
