WOLVES OF MEMORY, first published in 1981 by G. P. Putnam's Sons, is a "darkly dystopian" story "whose surreal mise-en-scene effortlessly draws the book's brooding hero, Sandor Courane, into the depths when he is sent by Earth's ruling computer to a penal planet which infects its denizens with a fatal disease destructive to memory.
