https://smashwords/books/view/278660 All mention, all recollection, all recordings of the past, have been outlawed. People are no longer even permitted to keep diaries. They have to rely on their memories, in order to look back on events, but even then, it is expressly forbidden to discuss former times with anybody. History is a thing of the past; literally. It was outlawed in the ‘Purges’ of the twenty ninth century; so ‘They’ say. But who are ‘They’? No-one even officially knows. If anybody ever admitted to knowing them, or even of them, there would be no end of trouble. ‘They’ tell us that old men used to relate stories from their youth; pass them on to their children and their grand-children, in order that the youngsters could learn from the mistakes of the old, and build on their successes. These days, nobody even possesses a photograph. All recording equipment, all images; still, or moving, all audio files, and even written accounts of events, were abolished; destroyed, and subsequently outlawed, during the ‘Purges’… so ‘They’ say. A few examples survived, but these are as rare as the truth about the existence of those known as ‘They’, in these times of uncertainty. Anyone who wants to find out who ‘They’ are, faces an uphill struggle. In addition to this, it is necessary to know, or at least be conscious of the existence of, certain other people who do not ‘officially’ exist.
