The Art of Forgetting begins in a compelling manner and weaves a character-rich tale of trial and transformation.  The growth of the protagonist, Lloyd, demonstrates a believable arc, and his internal conflict is heightened by his profession as a neurologist.  The pace lagged in a few spots, but it moved well enough to keep the pages turning.Palmieri showcases his familiarity with medical terminology and practice deftly, weaving a suspenseful tale which engrosses the reader.  The supporting characters contain enough vitality so they don't come across as one-dimensional.  An entertaining read!
