A very fascinating story. This book was proclaimed false after an investigation but after reading several articles and interviews with the author, it is apparent that regardless if he physically experienced these memories ( the consensus is that he did not) they are true and tormenting to him. From a psychological point of view, the power of the false memories is mind blowing.
Does this falsity subtract from the book? Should the awards be rescinded? Does it's existence as fiction claiming truth take away from the stories of true survivors? These are unanswerable questions whose answers can only be considered opinions.
